What the week actually is

Science camp fails when it becomes a magic show — big reaction, loud noise, no idea why. Every demonstration here comes with a prediction written down first, so the child has something at stake before the lid comes off.

Day by day

  1. Write the prediction down first
  2. Run it and record what actually happened
  3. Change one variable, only one
  4. Argue the result against another team
  5. Showcase: present the data, including the mess
