Future Engineer Medley
Morning Camp Dates: July 17 - 21, August 14 - 18
Afternoon Camp Dates: June 12 - 16, July 31 - August 4
The Engineering camp delivers all the ingredients for hands on experimental learning for your child.
A program designed by STEM professionals, it's a innovative combination of experimentation based learning, collaborative discussions and asking a whole bunch of WHY's, HOW's, WHAT-IF's. If you have a curious child, our Engineering camp will lead them into a fantastic learning journey.The Future Engineer Medley will be a personalized week full of various activities. They will be age-appropriate and provide necessary assistance when required. Some of the activities featured in the program are included in the list below. Continue reading to see what is planned for our Future Medley weeks.
Theme Park Engineering
Our students will have the opportunity to build the theme park of their dreams! Students will engage in team and solo projects to construct working Ferris Wheels, rollercoasters, and more! Our camp is beginner friendly and will start with fundamentals in engineering. After basic instruction, additional challenges may be given. Learn how Theme Park Rides operate and other skills such as:
- Construct a motorized rollercoaster, functional swing, and moving Ferris Wheel
- Utilize fine motor skills
- Connect K'nex to make builds up to 3ft tall!
- Use creativity to complete challenges
- Learn to build with a team
- Engage in the fundamentals of engineering
Ultimate Engineering and Robotics
It's a All You Can Build & Code Medley spanning multiple areas of Robotics, and Hands on Engineering. Anything's possible, just bring your creative thinking!!
- Build multiple products with household items: cars & vehicles, rockets, paper planes, pasta bridges, Egg Trap, sprinkler systems, and so much more.
- Code multiple Robots (Lego Mindstorm, Ozobots, mBots) to solve various intriguing challenges.
- Innovate engineering structures using Knex and Legos.
Electronic Circuits and Robot Building & Coding
Electronic Circuit Design:- Students use plug and play electronics to build fully functioning simulations of various practical electronics including wind-energy mills, solar stations, alarms, flood warning systems and much more.
- Students learn about switches, open & closed circuits, voltage & current among other concepts while building fully functioning electronic products.
