About The Super Saturday Program The Super Saturday Program is an enrichment program for intellectually
gifted children, ages 4-14, in the Greater Cincinnati area.
At The Super Saturday Program, children can explore established and
new areas of interest while surrounded by their gifted peers. Classes are
held six Saturdays each fall, winter, and spring, with both morning and
afternoon classes.
The Super Saturday Program is presented by the Parent Association for
Gifted Education, Inc (PAGE), which is a 501(c)(3) all-volunteer nonprofit
corporation. Parents are encouraged to volunteer their time and talents to
help keep the program running smoothly and can learn more on campus.

A Variety of Classes
Class offerings vary from term to term and will be available on our website
a few days prior to registration opening. Here is a sample listing of clas-
ses which we have offered in the past.
Be a Podcaster
You, our newest podcaster, will learn how to make your own Internet radio
show, also known as a podcast. From choosing what the show will be
about to recording, editing, and posting - you will learn the medium from
the ground up.
Chemical Explorations
Come measure, pour, mix and swirl into the world of chemistry as we ex-
plore reactions that make sidewalk chalk, ice cream, crystals and much
more. Explore chemical changes, create density bottles and make water
flow uphill in this hands on, educational and fun session.
The Wizarding World of Harry Potter
Have you ever wondered what it would be like to go to class at Hogwarts
School of Witchcraft and Wizardry? Do you want to learn to make potions,
play Quidditch, make wands and cast spells? Then join this class and
delve deep into the world of Harry Potter. Open to Griffendors, Slytherins,
Ravenclaws, and Hufflepuffs.
Mystery Mayhem
Missing cookies, Forensic Techniques, Encrypted messages, suspenseful
games, and colorful chromatography are just a clue about what awaits
you in Mystery Mayhem.
Making Monsters
With Halloween around the corner, let’s make our own costumes and
props. Cheetahs, dragons, ghouls, and superheroes are on the prowl.
Learn realistic face painting, develop your own unique costume design,
and create your masterpiece. *Note - Please disclose any latex allergies
as alternative costuming methods are required.*
LEGO Mindstorm Robotics
Learn to use motors, sensors and gears to design and build a unique
LEGO robot each class to master weekly challenges. Learn gearing, cre-
ate robot attachments, compete in games, races, heavy weight challeng-
es, and much, much more! Then combine all the skills you've learned to
create your ultimate robot for an epic Battle Bots competition!
Deconstruction in Reverse
Toasters, TVs, Vacuums, and Blenders. Piece by piece, deconstruct trash
and reconstruct it into something totally new. Build a sculpture, build
droids, scrap it, or build primitive hand tools. You’ll never look at trash the
same way again.

terested in the Teen Leader Vol-
