Planetology
Years 3-4
Three-week Program
Planetologists, prepare for lift-off into the outer reaches of the solar system to discover and name a new world! In this program, students engage in deep worldbuilding to invent their planet's environment, focusing on hyper-detailed descriptions and poetic techniques. They'll practice character development by creating an alien species, crafting reports and survival-critical care guides. Students will blend informative and imaginative speculative writing to document their exhilarating cosmic encounters.
