From the GSC perspective, we will take a tour across our beautiful state and explore the
habitats of each region. Learn first-hand about the diverse array of animals living in
North Carolina and how they are unique from other species around the world. This
camp will introduce students to basic concepts of ecology, local geography and
environmental science. Dress for cold weather as we will spend time outside. Send a

FIRST® LEGO® League Jr.
We’ve got an awesome opportunity for children ages 6-7. Join FIRST® LEGO® League
Jr. for Aqua Adventure, an exciting challenge where you’ll design a way to improve
Hydro, the water drop’s journey to you.
Aqua Adventure
This program features a real-world scientific concept explored through the lenses of
research, teamwork, construction, and imagination. Guided by coaches, teams will

use bricks to build a moving model using the LEGO® Education WeDo Construction
and WeDo 2.0 Sets. Unlike a typical workshop, teams will be student-directed with
supplemental coaching to ensure the season’s goals are met. Students will produce a
“Show Me” poster to illustrate their journey in this program. In addition, all students will
receive a t-shirt as well as an invitation to participate in a local showcase
(date and time TBA) at the Greensboro Science Center.
