PondZoo Scheme

Hi, I'm David! I study chemistry at Yeshiva University, and when I heard about the Simcha Lab I jumped at the opportunity. I've already spent a summer as an archery and paintball specialist at Simcha, but now I get to spend my time there teaching the kids about science and showing them how much fun it can be. Hopefully, they'll still let me use the paintball guns, though.

I'm excited about the biology experiments we're planning for our students. We're talking about nature walks to collect insect samples and pond water followed by examination under the fascinating Miscope - an easy-to-use digital microscope capable of 140x magnification. I can't wait to show the students (and see for myself) the invisible menagerie living right under our noses (so to speak)!

We're working hard to finalize the plan for the summer and hammer out a budget. We're almost set to go. Camp is gonna be awesome!
