Summer Science Camp - CANCELED In-Person
This session of the Summer Science Camp will be CANCELED due to the fact that Oak View Branch Library will be CLOSED on that day. Oak Lane and other streets in the Oak View community will be closed to traffic due to an asphalt overlay project. We apologize for the inconvenience.
This session will be offered on Wednesday, August 14th from 3:30-5pm.
Elementary and Middle School students are invited to join the Oak View Summer Science Camp on Tuesdays from 3:30 pm to 5 pm. We will be doing experiments and games focused on energy topics. The goal would be to teach the students about clean energy and sustainability through fun activities and experiments.
- Some experimental ideas would include:
- Building little electric motors using paperclips, batteries, and small solar cells
- Splitting water into hydrogen and oxygen.
- Some simple game/activities would include:
- A modified version of red rover or guppies and minnows related to how a battery operates.
- Building chemical elements with clay/straws.
The Oak View Summer Science Camp is sponsored by the School of Engineering of the University of California - Irvine (UCI).
