Discover the Science of Life
In this interactive camp, young learners become junior biotechnologists, exploring the building blocks of life! Through hands-on experiments, creative models, and safe online simulations, campers learn how DNA, genes, and cells work — and how scientists use biotech to solve real-world problems in medicine, agriculture, and the environment.
What You’ll Do
Week 1 – Welcome to the World of Biotech
-
Introduction to cells, DNA, and genes.
-
Fun activity: Build a “DNA model” using craft materials.
-
Explore how scientists study life to solve problems.
-
Mini Project: “Create Your Own Cell” craft or digital model.
Week 2 – Genes in Action
-
Learn about heredity, traits, and genetic variation.
-
Experiment: Simple demonstrations of traits using safe household items.
-
Activity: Predict your character’s traits with a fun “genetic game.”
-
Discussion: How do genes influence the world around us?
Week 3 – Biotech in the Real World
-
Explore biotechnology applications: agriculture, medicine, and environment.
-
Virtual lab: Simulate experiments like DNA extraction or genetic editing (kid-friendly platforms).
-
Challenge: Design a “solution using biotech” for a global issue (disease, food, or environment).
Week 4 – Bio Innovators Expo
-
Final Project: Present your own biotech concept or model.
-
Showcase in our live Shoily BioLab Expo.
