Because this class will be taught entirely in Spanish, a high level of Spanish proficiency is required. (We can reiterate the explanation of the concepts in English if needed) Each session is full of projects based on Passion, Collaboration with Peers, and a Playful Spirit. It is full of hands-on Memorable, Meaningful, and Motivating activities, specially designed for girls and boys, 9 to 11 years old. This class is a discovery class where the only requirement is a passion for learning and creating. In this online live course, each student will: - Participate in a class with other children his/her age group (9 - 11), discovering how engineering is a part of their everyday life. - Enjoy four hours of personalized project-based instruction and interest-based projects. - Learn to design, build, create models that will require an engineer's eye using everyday household materials. - Collaborate with small groups (6 campers maximum per session) with one adult certified live instructor. Syllabus/Topics covered: Week 1 (Civil Engineering) - Engineering & Engineers - Civil Engineering - Design a Platform Model using Weak Materials Week 2 (Aerospace Engineering) - Share an update of your Platform - Aerospace Engineering - Design a Paper Airplane and an Airplane Launcher Week Day 3 (Mechanical Engineering) - Share an update of your Paper Airplane and the Airplane Launcher - Mechanical Engineering - Design a Robotic Arm Model or Crane Model Week Day4 (Wrap up/Environmental Engineering) - Share an update of your Robotic Arm Model or Crane Model - Environmental Engineering - Design a Sorting Machine Model to aid in Recycling The 60 minutes classes are incredibly interactive: 10-minute lecture using videos and slides. 40-minute self-paced creation. 10-minute discussion of achievements.

Metas de aprendizaje
Engineers play an important role in our everyday lives; in this course, we will be learning the basics of engineering and how simple machines impact our everyday life.
Students will learn about the basics of simple machines in our Engineering class and how their designs contribute to everyday life.
In this course, students will put on their engineering caps and test their abilities by creating different projects related to the engineering field discussed for the day.
Students will learn that being an engineer starts as a model and will create model designs using everyday household items to complete projects.
With the instructor's guide, students will learn that they, too, can be a part of the engineering process if they are willing to try.
