**The Evolution of STEM building set is available for pre-order now & will ship out on March 1st! Make sure to order yours now before they sell out! See materials section for details** WELCOME TO THE EVOLUTION OF STEM DISPLAY MODEL BUILDING MINI CAMP! Science-lovers & history buffs will gather with friends to build the brand new Evolution of STEM display model set under the guidance of their favorite Rocket Science teacher, Teacher Tom, while learning some amazing science & history ! THIS. SET. IS. AWESOME. We will begin by each sharing which part of the set we are most excited to build out. (Can you guess Teacher Tom's?) Learners should have bag # 1 open with their pieces organized into types before class begins. Teacher Tom will display the instructions on his screen while building alongside you. Teacher Tom will teach you all about the 3 famous scientists featured in this set along with the science & history behind many of the other features. We will find the hidden features as well as an anomaly & decide if we think this was done in error or on purpose! You may need to pause building for a moment here & there to see some cool photos & videos & learners can ask questions anytime. Here is some info about the Evolution of STEM set: -This is a science-themed set that you can display when you are done building it. -This is an 879-piece set that measures over 10.5 in. (27 cm) high, 9 in. (23 cm) wide & 7.5 in. (19 cm) deep. -It features a buildable base in the shape of an open book topped by mini builds that represent historic innovations including Newton’s apple tree, Carver’s plants bed, a space shuttle & a robotic arm. -Build an early car & a home computer, the NASA Voyager Probe with the Golden Record on board for any extraterrestrial life form that may find it, & much more. -Turn the dial to make a 3D replica of a carbon atom float upwards & a DNA strand rotate. - Build 3 famous scientists including Marie Curie, the first person ever to win 2 Nobel prizes; Sir Isaac Newton, famous for his law of universal gravitation; & pioneering agricultural scientist George Washington Carver. We will end class by showing off our sets, deciding where we will display them, & wrapping up any last questions that we have about what we learned in camp. Why build this set with Teacher Tom? -He has the smartest & coolest STEM learners around & you should get to hang out with them also! -He is a SPACE expert & can answer ALL of your SPACE & STEM questions. -He is a professional builder who has built real-life ESCAPE ROOMS! -He has a Corgi named after Sir Isaac Newton who listens to him teach Rocket Science & Engineering all day every day without any complaints. (But also knocks over his brick sets when they are not kept out of reach.) -See the Teacher Expertise section for more details. We can't wait for you to join us in this epic mini camp & in Teacher Tom's other classes! If you have a group of friends who would like to request a private mini camp together, please send Tom a message on Outschool!
