Lego Club ~ STEAM Camp
This summer camp focuses on enhancing the students' Science, Technology, Engineering, Art & Math skills... all while building with Legos, utilizing iPads/LapTops and following the design process.
Orbeez - Lava Lamps
Students predicted what would happen when we added Alka-Seltzer tablets to a cub of Orbeez. We then made observations of how the bubbles changed and moved the Orbeez. Students recorded their findings like real scientists.
Cyberchase 3D Builder App
An awesome 3D Geometry game from Cyberchase! Introducing a 3D puzzle game starring Buzz and Delete from Cyberchase. Bumbling bots Buzz and Delete accidentally zapped the houses in Botopolis totally flat. Students help rebuild the town by turning 2D shapes into 3D structures.
Elephant Bridges - 21 Elephants & Still Counting
We read "21 Elephants and Still Standing" by April Prince, to learn about how the Circus used elephants to test the Brooklyn Bridge when it opened. Then, students built their own bridge using mini elephants, craft sticks and mini cups to test their designs.
Stickbots -Stop Motion Movies
Students used Stikbots and the free Stikbot app to make stop motion movies. By taking pictures of a Stikbot and moving it to different positions, students created a movie that looks like the Stikbot is moving on its own.
