Welcome back to Sarah's Science Summer Scrapbook!
For our third week of camp at Robert's Regional Park in Oakland, and Tilden Regional Park in Berkeley, we had fun with the science of "Terrific Transformers." We made glow in the dark robots that transform in the night,
and also amphibious vehicles that roam the land or float in the sea (or bathtub).
We also got a few of them racing with their engines revving and their wind-powered turbines spinning.
Our transforming truck robots morphed from robot to truck and our flip stick machines changed two images into one.
The highlight of the week was getting our own Painted Lady butterfly larva, learning about their lifecycle, and building the habitat for the butterfly after it undergoes metamorphosis.
In our hike to Joaquin Miller Park, we built gnome homes and forts, and encountered several banana slugs.
We enjoyed delicious and healthy snacks twice a day during snack time prepared by our Counselors in Training (CITs).

Thank for stopping by. Be sure to check back next week!
