Biology: Become an explorer and board the HMS Beagle for a tour of the Galapagos Islands! As students embark they will learn how to prepare for such a journey, and then begin their tour of the incredible islands. While there they’ll learn scientific art and become one with the birds to discover how they’ve adapted to their surroundings and why these adaptations have occurred. Then students will take their knowledge and apply it to the creation of their own island with different plants and species.

Chemistry: Learn about the basic building blocks of our universe – the Atom! We will also see how atoms relate to elements and compounds and we will explore the Periodic Table, an icon in the world of chemistry.

Physics: Dive into the world of engineering as students explore how to help the town of Heritage Valley as they need a different green energy source!
