Summer camp topics - 2013: The strong feature of the camp is take-home working models projects and supporting experiments which will talk about different energy concepts like sound, electricity, light, motion etc ultimately assists his understanding of science and increases his aptitude for Science. Here are some projects that the participants will make during the camp. Day1: Lens Camera - This is the simplest version of the modern camera. Kids will construct their own lens cameras and understand why the image is inverted on the screen! Concepts: Light energy, Nuclear energy in celestial bodies, Bending of Light and Optics Day 2: Magic Bank- Kids can enjoy the magical effect of light. They also understand the concepts of optical illusion. Bird in the Cage (Thaumatrope) - Persistence of Vision and limitations of eyes are understood by this particular experiment Concepts: Light, Reflection, How our eyes see a video Day 3: LED torch- Magic pen which uses light as an ink to write and help kids understand the concepts of electricity kids build a LED Torch. Concepts: Sources of light, phosphorescence, luminance, Chemiluminance, Electricity, New techniques to produce electricity. Day 4: Newton's boat- Wonder how and why the big ships move on water, what gives hover craft a thrust and why an airplane takes off. Build a boat which uses thrust of fan to move on water. Concepts: Conversion of Electricity into Mechanical energy, Use of magnetism, Motors, Newtons laws Day 5: Music instruments- Participants learn that sound is a form of energy too. Generate sound using things that we see around us! And learn about the properties of sound. Concepts: What, why of sound, what is noise, Why is there a huge noise when balloon is burst!
