Greg Dancer is known for his kindness and ability to connect with children. I mean, who studies sugar volcanoes with an infrared camera? Or has children tinkering with rockets, tending to butterflies, using microscopes, exploring pond life, meeting a marine scientist, building a bridge or assembling a geodesic dome? Let’s just say Greg is Super excited to return and lead the Science Sampler!

PS Last summer Greg had sell-out weeks and all families gave him a 9 or 10 out 10.

Program Curriculum

This sampler is geared toward rising 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders. The week is divided into modules: rocketry, chemistry, drone clinic, microscope lab, structures, astronomy, magnetism, simple machines, engineering, and experimentation. There are plenty of outdoor activities, games, and challenges, and the freedom to explore. At the end of the week, we stage a mini science fair so your child can share what they’ve discovered.

All the Super Science Sampler activities are designed to expand your child’s knowledge and skills, all while having fun and making new friends. Many modules have an outdoor component, taking advantage of the majestic open spaces and beautiful landscape of Lasell University. Mid-morning and afternoon we take a 20-minute recess and get outside for some good old fashioned play time. Games, challenges and the freedom to explore add to the fun!

Why choose the EOS Super Science Sampler?

Insatiable curiosity—it comes naturally to a young child. The idea is to give your child the freedom to try things out and have fun! Based on a self-determination theory in education, children “own the science.” They will hone their ability to observe, wonder, and ask questions. Every day brings something new, engaging your young one and keeping things active. Doing. Exploring. Tinkering. Building. Experimenting. Making new friends and having fun!
