US Grade 1 - 4
Learners will be able to apply their thinking skills critically, creatively, and with problem solving to work on five different STEM challenges. These STEM challenges will allow the learners to create and build designs. The class will be structured with a five minute scenario and directions for the challenge. They will then have 5 minutes to plan, 20 minutes to build/construct, and 10 minutes of sharing their design. My teaching style will be encouraging to the students, using questioning stems to get them thinking about their design and implementation of their design. Learners will interact with each other via conversation as they build and during sharing at the end of their design. There is no required experience needed to participate in this camp.
Learning Goals
Student will improve their critical thinking, problem solving, and creativity skills. They will be able to verbally express their thinking process as they complete each STEM challenge.
