Primary STEM Themes
I Wanna Be…A Techie!
Topics include coding, robotics, and electronics. Students study the anatomy of computers, code a caterpillar (yes!), and look into the future of technology. Projects include programming PCs using ScratchJr and building simple circuits.
Planets and Solar System
From exploring the design of the International Space Station to simulating the handling and examining of moon rocks, our budding astronauts will learn about rockets, planets, and our solar system.
I Wanna Be…A Marine Biologist!
From coral reefs to sharks that “sleep,” campers explore the unique, the strange, and the perplexing features of underwater life. Exciting projects include turtle shell backpacks and octopus sock puppets (socktopus!).
I Wanna Be…A Sports Scientist!
Campers will discover the scientific explanations behind athleticism and develop an appreciation for the science of sports. Projects range from determining the optimal ball trajectory to score a field goal in football to making a Q-Tip Skeleton.
STEM All Around Us
Campers will set out on a pretend “shop- ping spree” while learning to differentiate coins and recall their values. The group will be introduced to robotics and learn how to create their own robot!
I Wanna Be…An Archaeologist!
Students learn about archaeological tools and identify optimal locations for digs. From artifacts left on land to historical treasures buried at sea, our mini-Archaeologists learn the hidden science behind this intriguing career.
Elementary STEM Themes
Freaky Forces and Elusive Energies
From the magic of magnetism to the science of sound, campers explore a world filled with energies and forces! Projects such as lava lamps, clay boats, and catapults allow children to touch, feel, and see concepts that are the building blocks of physics.
STEM All Around Us
Campers will set out on a pretend “shop- ping spree” while learning to differentiate coins and recall their values. The group will be introduced to robotics and learn how to create their own robot!
Biorobotics
This camp focuses on the hardware and coding that’s required to create machines that model living and breathing beings. Projects include mechanized contraptions ranging from robotic hands to real programmable robots using LEGO WeDo!
Engineering A Metropolis
Campers explore what it takes to create a metropolitan area by designing their own city! From street layouts to power source identification, campers learn about the challenges that architects and engineers face when building cities from scratch.
Coding and Gaming
Using MIT’s Scratch computer language, campers learn how to program their very own unique games and animations. Projects include a computer program uploaded to MIT’s website and an original board game.
Architecture
Kids discover mathematical principle necessary to build structures capable of withstanding the forces of nature.
