FEBRUARY

Electricity & Circuits

Students will explore the fundamentals of electricity this month, with a focus on Ohm’s Law (V=IR). Through hands-on experimentation, they’ll work with components like breadboards, resistors, and LEDs. They'll also gain an understanding of parallel and series circuits, as well as an introduction to digital inputs and data types, all while dipping their toes into the world of microcontrollers and coding.

MARCH

LEGO Robotics
 

March is all about building and coding with LEGO Robotics! Students will work on some epic builds, while learning how to program and control their creations. Steam Explorers will start their journey into Scratch coding, while our Foundational Innovators will take their first steps with Python programming, unlocking new coding capabilities for their robots.

APRIL

Microcontroller Madness

In April, students will tackle a design challenge that requires them to build and program their own robots to solve a problem. They'll work with microcontrollers, sensors, motors, and various coding languages to bring their creations to life. This is a great month for students to test their engineering and coding skills as they get hands-on with real-world tech.

MAY

Animation Nation

In May, creativity takes center stage as students learn the principles of animation and create their own stop-motion animation shorts. We’re thrilled to welcome special guest Mike Rauch, who has worked with Cartoon Network, Nickelodeon, and Sesame Workshop among others. Mike will share insights about building fun and exciting characters, worlds and stories for animated TV and movies.
