The Scientific Method: Learning the steps of a scientific investigation and following the steps through the observation of how the temperature of water can affect its density.
Using Scientific Tools: Learning the various kinds of science tools used in the lab and performing an exercise that will promote the use of each tool to complete it.
Atomic Structure of Matter: creating a 2D and 3D atom model to learn about subatomic particles that make up atoms, the building blocks of all matter.
Physical Changes of Matter: Exploration of the law of conservation through the measurement of an object’s mass before and after a physical change of appearance.
Sink or Float (Buoyancy): Designing boats using different kinds of materials and testing out their ability to float on water after weight is added.
Chemical Changes of Matter: Investigating how combining various ingredients can create a colorful and explosive chemical reaction.
Galaxy of my Dreams: Learning about galaxies through a modeling exercise to create a representation of a galaxy.
Comets: Active discussion on comets and exploring simulations of a comet’s trajectory around the sun.
Designing Experiments: Learning the process and steps of a controlled scientific experiment and soft data collection of temperature changes.
Using Scientific Tools: Application of basic scientific tools to investigate and determine the best buoyant materials. Review of atoms and the properties of matter.
Atomic Theory: Categorize matter and elements with different properties based on the applicable forces of energy on each state of matter.
Chemical changes and pH: Students will observe the law of conservation through the measurements of solutes and solvents to create different soluble and insoluble solutions.
Utilizing magnetic energy: Creation of a spinning pen that uses magnetic energy.
Clouds on Earth: Observe and compare the different types of clouds formed on Earth before creating their own cloud and fog.
Universe Matter: Follow instructions to create a new substance that resembles the stars and planets in the universe from a chemical reaction.
Using Electromagnetic Energy on Stars: Exploring how different wavelengths of the electromagnetic spectrum are used to learn information about celestial objects in our distant Universe.
STEM Challenge: Using two basic tools to learn about gravitational force and design a structure to create and measure energy using gravity.
Surface Tension: Using the properties of water to model rafts that will utilize a disruption of a body of water’s surface tension to navigate.
Chemical reactions: Follow recipes and molecular equations to follow 4 main types of chemical reactions.
Delicious Semi-Solid Matter: Exploration of states of matter from liquid to solid using and creating different mixtures with a tasty outcome.
Water Purification: Performing a simple method to purify and remove contaminants and impurities from water.
NanoRover: Designing a modeled rover with recycled materials to perform and observe the variables that affect Newton’s third law of motion.
Crew Vehicle: Design and construct a crew module used by astronauts to return to Earth with recycled materials and test its landing abilities.
Satellites: Plan a mission’s purpose, and design and construct a satellite with the necessary functional structures.

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 Monday, September 2, 2024 for the Fall Semester and Monday January 06, 2025 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 2 weeks 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.
