SciGenie offers a high educator-to-student ratio (8:1) and a high-quality, interactive curriculum delivered by passionate, expert instructors.
SciGenie NOVA Day Camps offer engaging, hands-on STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math) activities for grade-school children. The camps focus on building critical thinking and problem-solving skills through interactive projects, experiments, and games. Students are grouped by grade level or ability and explore different STEAM subjects in the morning and afternoon. Activities include robotics, engineering, science experiments, drone operation, coding, and visual arts. The curriculum is designed to spark curiosity and foster a love for discovery, with expert instructors guiding campers through various challenges. Campers will gain practical skills in areas like forensic science (e.g., fingerprint analysis, DNA extraction), circuit building, and robotics. The program emphasizes collaboration and creativity in a supportive environment, culminating in opportunities like mini-expos to showcase projects.
A typical full day includes general check-in, morning greetings, a STEM activity or project, snack breaks, indoor or outdoor activities, lunchtime, another STEM activity or project, and genius games before dismissal.
The ideal student is a curious grade-school child eager to explore science, technology, engineering, art, and math through hands-on activities and collaborative projects.
