Comparisons: review of the scientific method to perform a comparison experiment where students will use and compare different kinds of salts to create crystals. Students will learn about the saturation properties of water.
Atomic Structure of matter: students will create 2D model of carbon to learn about subatomic particles that make up atoms. They will then play a game to determine the surfaces that can release electrons.
Solutions: heterogeneous vs homogeneous juice- Students will explore two different types of mixtures and measuring contents to learn about the Law of conservation.
Chemical changes to matter: Investigating how combining various ingredients can create a colorful and explosive chemical reaction.
Outer Space Rock Samples: students will create a conglomerate rock and take samples to learn how scientists take samples of sedimentary rocks in other planets.
Satellite Modeling: Students will recycle simple materials to design and create a model of a satellite.
Deep Space Antennae Engineering: students will design a model of an antennae used in the Deep Space Network using flexible materials.
Asteroids: students will actively discuss asteroids and create personal odd-shaped designs of asteroids using ediblle materials.
Modeling Bridges: Modeling bridge structures that would be able to withstand severe storms and strong winds.
Separating solutions: students will create a soluble and insoluble solution and then plan out different methods of separating the solvents and solutes used to create each mixture. Students will use measuring tools to reinforce the llaw of conservation.
Magnetic properties: Explore the magnetic field differences based on size and distance of magnets and matter with magnetic properties.
Thermoslime: Creating and observing color changing slime through the use of thermochromic materials that will change structure and reflect light different when the temperature is changed. Reinforcing chemical and physical changes to matter.
Astronaut Landing: Investigate the factors that affect a safe spacecraft landing using simple materials found at home.
Asteroids: Learning about asteroids and modeling asteroids and their potential crater size on a planet or moon based on their mass.
Solar System to Scale: Learning how to calculate the distances of planets from the sun to construct scale model of the solar system.
2 stage Balloon Powered Rocket: Design and construct rockets with recycled materials and test their flight abilities.
Density: compare spheric items made of different materials, and test their bouyancy

Clouds on Earth: Observe and compare the different types of clouds formed on Earth before creating their own cloud and fog.
Universe Slime: Follow instructions to create a new substance that resembles the stars and planets in the universe from a chemical reaction.
2 stage Balloon Powered Rocket: Design and construct rockets with recycled materials and test their flight abilities.

Eye of a Scientist has created a homeschool research-methods program for young children that includes physics, biology, Chemistry, Molecular Biology, Ecology, Neuroscience, and Environmental science hands on projects and experiments that follow a structured guideline using the scientific method.
Eye of a Scientist loves the community built through homeschool parental engagement and encourages parents to facilitate their child's needs during class as all students will participate performing their own individual experiments. Support and extra sets of hands is something we all value during lessons and engages a closer sense of community within the classroom. I enjoy for parents to be part of the learning process. Some parents often go for a walk or take a small break with their younger/older child and these actions can also benefit the group. Whether you want to sit and assist or stand back and do some side work, its all ok with me.
Groups are divided into ages 4-6 years old (mini science) and 7-9 years old. I am flexible and understand how some students may better fit in the introductory younger classes or be ready for more challenging classes. Please discuss with me your child's needs if you have any concerns and/or suggestions for their scientific growth.
Each science experiment session is accompanied with a lesson summary and a follow up activity that can be performed at home to reinforce the research and science topic concepts learned in class
Davie classes will begin on Wednesday September 6, 2023 for the Fall Semester and Wednesday January 10, 2024 for the Winter/Spring semester.
Lessons will be held at Tree Tops Park in Davie.
Please select your service (mini science, future researchers, or scientific investigators) to pre-register your child(ren)'s spot(s) in the "In-Person Lessons" tab.
You'll then be directed to pay the full amount which includes a $10 registration fee. Full payment must be submitted to save a child's spot.
In the event that there are restrictions, payment can be submitted in two parts. The first half must be completed before the start of the program, and the second payment must be completed by the 4th scheduled class. If payment is not completed, student may not be eligible to attend lessons.
You may cancel your registration up to 1 week before the start of the program. Registration fees are non-refundable. Due to rental engagements to offer this research program to a bigger audience, once the program had begun and a cancellation is requested, we will be unable to return your payment for the remainder of the semester. Eye of a Scientist will handle all cancellations individually and it is advised to directly contact Neymi Mignocchi at her email, Neymi@eyeofascientist.com to discuss any questions and/or concerns. Thank you for understanding the logistics of a small business.
Please contact Neymi@eyeofascientist.com to submit an invoice request to receive a 15% discount for the registration of a third child in the same scheduled semester.
