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 WeeksAerospace Engineering: Rocket! Students explore aerospace engineering, learn about principles of flight and create and launch their own slingshot rocket.Mechanical Engineering: Mini Golf MazeStudents learn about force, gravity and friction by creating their own mini golf maze game.Acoustic Engineering: Let's DrumStudents learn about drums, how they make sound and learn about rhythms. Students design and build their own drums.Industrial Engineering: FossilsStudents learn about fossils, make their own cast and learn how casts and molds are useful engineering tools.
