Jr. Engineering Club


Youth / S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) / Prek-Elementary S.T.E.M. (Science, Technology, Engineering, Math) -
Winter/Spring 2025

All new lessons for the new school year! Calling new and returning students! The Engineering For Kids Jr. Engineering/STEM Club brings fun, hands-on lessons every week to introduce engineering concepts at a young age. For each lesson, students focus on developing 21st Century skills such as problem solving, critical thinking and teamwork. These life skills give students the confidence to approach challenges in their lives and realize that they can succeed in almost anything! 

Session 1, 4 Weeks
Aerospace Engineering: Rocket!      
Students explore aerospace engineering, learn about principles of flight and create and launch their own slingshot rocket.
