Course Descriptions:

• Hiking Adventure Camp - This popular camp involves day hiking at beautiful NJ parks and reservations. Students and chaperones are transported by school van leaving at 8 am and returning by 5 pm. Students should bring backpack, water, and lunch and wear good quality hiking shoes. Cell phones are permitted. 
• Math & English Camps - Half of the day is devoted to mathematics and the other half to English grammar and writing. SciCore master teachers use time-tested methods to instill fundamentals and elevate every student's level. Assessment on day one aids the teacher to identify gaps in each student's knowledge base. 
• Elementary Science & Art - Half the day is devoted to hands-on science experiments and the remainder to art and construction projects. 
• Middle School Chemistry and Electronics - Three days are devoted to hands-on chemistry experiments, performed individually by each student with a camp-provided supply kit. Two days are devoted to fundamentals of electronic circuitry whereby students build operational circuits on a breadboard. 
• Middle School Chemistry and Physics - Three days are devoted to hands-on chemistry and the remaining two days involve experiments and demonstrations of principles of mechanics and waves. 
• College Readiness - This high school program is designed to teach your adolescent skills that are essential for success in college, such as effective note-taking, test-studying procedures, how to write a college-level term paper, multi-step problems in applied mathematics, time management techniques, close-reading, and review of troublesome concepts in chemistry, physics, and biology. 
• Early Readers - In this camp, children who have never read before are taught using time-tested phonics techniques. Students with some reading exposure are improved in reading fluency. Students are taught one-on-one using our successful differentiated learning methods. You will be amazed when your youngster can read fluently after this two-week camp. Breaks are taken from reading lessons for arts and crafts and games.
