Summer Steam Building Camp- Ready, Set, Build: Becoming a Master at Building!
What's included
4 live meetings
2 hrs 20 mins in-class hoursClass Experience
In this one week camp, students will come together for daily STEAM building challenges. They can solve the challenge by building with bricks, creating a diagram, drawing a picture, building a model using craft and recycled products, or other creative techniques. Each challenge will stretch students' creativity and problem solving skills as they create a narrative for their creation. Daily challenges provide students with the parameters necessary to complete their creations. Some days, the challenge will be based on a theme, while other days students may need to solve a problem and complete a task. Each day will be different! Students will use a variety of bricks, art supplies, or creative materials they have at home. Upon completion of the build time, students will present their creation to the group while including a narrative that explains how their finished product fits the weekly challenge. This fun and exciting course will encourage your brick building enthusiast to share their unique skills and talents while building fine motor skills, problem solving and mathematical thinking, language and social skills, time management skills, public speaking skills, and confidence. I can't wait to meet you during our first challenge. See you there!
