Elementary campers in the "Sports Spectacular" program at Liberty Science Center Science Camp explore the scientific principles behind various sports through engaging, hands-on activities. Campers will investigate the forces involved in running, jumping, and maintaining balance. They will have the opportunity to try different sports and then analyze the movements of the game and their own bodies. The curriculum is designed to foster collaboration, communication, and creative thinking while developing an understanding and appreciation for STEM concepts. Each week culminates in a Friday Family Showcase where campers present their projects to friends and family.
