Montville Recreation Department

The Montville Recreation Department will be sponsoring SCIENCE WORKSHOPS during the 2016 Spring Break for Ages 7-12.

The CREATIVE ENGINEERING WORKSHOP will take place on Monday & Tuesday, March 28 & 29 from 8:30am to 4:00pm. Activities will include: Work with an advanced three dimensional construction kit that is yours to keep and take home. Design and build simple or complex models of a vehicle, a robot or buildings. You will also get your own 3-volt geared motor to power up a moveable Radar Surveyor. Learn the many ways you can make your motor run. Hands on is the only way, so prepare to build from directions, and from your own imagination!

The ELECTRONIC LAB WORKSHOP will take place on Wednesday & Thursday, March 30 & 31 from 8:30am to 4:00pm. Activities will include: Learn about electronics the best way possible. You will experiment and take home your own Electronic Lab Kit. You will get to build a super race car engine sound, electric fan, motion detector, power microphone, trombone sounds, space war sounds, and so many more neat projects. That’s not all. It is not just about building. You will learn what direct current is and which materials conduct electricity. Learn what happens when you place batteries in series. Learn what resistors and capacitors do and so much more. Better yet, make your own battery. Make a mind reading game, a musical doorbell, and a lie detector, control electronic currents by the clap of your hands, and still more than that. Yes it is Sciensational Workshop’s way of Science. Fun, hands on and educational. Kids will be grouped by age.

NOTE: Students should bring a peanut free lunch and snack!

Instruction is provided by Sciensational Workshops for Kids, Inc. Staff

Classes take place at the Montville Community Field House located at 130 Change Bridge Road in Montville.
