The world of comic books is full of heroes, villains, challenges and triumphs — and the heroes need help! Ready to see just what it takes to be super? Campers answer the call for aid by dissecting superhero skill sets to uncover the science behind superpowers. Using biology, engineering and technology, they’ll fly alongside Superman, sling webs with Spider-Man and recognize the real-life heroes in their lives. Campers also investigate the mechanics of different movements, connecting STEM concepts, like the forces of motion and the influence of gravity, through exercise and movement. For example, what does friction have to do with soccer? Why would a football player need to know about unbalanced forces? Whether their superhero is in a comic book, on the field or at home, campers have fun answering these questions and so much more in this action-packed week.
