OUR 2022 INSTRUCTOR

Anna Nelson

Biotechnology & Molecular Bioscience major at the Rochester Institute of Technology

Anna has five plus years experience in leading and preparing STEM focused youth activities. She is described as a deep thinker. Her curiosity for all things delighted our campers last summer.

In exit surveys, Anna consistently scored between 9 and 10 out of 10 for delivering a fun, safe and meaningful STEM program! She will be passing on the instructor role this spring!

 

Program Curriculum

We will begin by learning about the different parts of compound and stereo microscopes. Your child will immediately start observing a variety of cool prepared slides. Then, children team up to collect samples outside for closer inspection. Part of the experience is collecting and preparing a specimen, observing, questioning, and talking about what the microscope reveals about it.

Sharing the view of a well-prepared specimen and slide is just fun! A microscope camera will allows projection onto a screen in the classroom and the children can save photos to take home! On the final day, your child gets to showcase a favorite specimen or discovery in a mini science fair.

Why choose the EOS Microscope Adventures?

A microscope allows your child to discover and explore a whole new world, sparking curiosity and questions. We build on this natural fascination to develop skills in asking questions, observing, and then documenting those observations. Microscope Adventures reveals the excellence of form and function in the world around us. Children then derive inspiration from what they collect, prepare, and observe and apply it to engineering solutions.

Microscopy opens up a multitude of interests and career paths for your child. Imagine them entering the medical field, doing research, engineering new materials, exploring nanotechnology, being a chemist, advancing micro surgical techniques, pushing the limits of additive manufacturing and you could go on and on with this list. Finding that thing, that passion is perhaps the best reason for a STEM experience like this!
