STEAM Workshops

Workshops for Grades 1-8

Topics By Grade:

  • Code by Color
    • Date: Tuesday, December 30th and Friday, January 2nd
    • Time: 10AM – 12PM (2 Hour)
    • Learn the basics of coding logic as you try out Ozobots, tiny robots that can use color as code. Make your robot move, change color, and even sing and dance! This camp will teach future engineers the background knowledge needed to step up into block coding and eventually coding languages.
  • Art-gineers
    • Date: Tuesday, December 30th and Friday, January 2nd
    • Time: 1PM – 4PM (3 Hour)
    • Explore the wonderful world of engineering through art! Create kinetic sculptures, robots that draw, and electrical art that lights up. Little learners will walk away with a wide variety of new knowledge about circuits, electricity, engineering, and art/design.

  • Art Bots
    • Date: Tuesday, December 30th and Friday, January 2nd
    • Time: 10AM – 12PM (2 Hour)
    • Robotics has never been more artistic! Build an autonomous drawing robot as well as explore how levers can be used to control a drawing machine. Students will learn important creative thinking and engineering skills while designing and building their projects.
  • Code with Color
    • Date: Tuesday, December 30th and Friday, January 2nd
    • Time: 1 PM – 4PM (3 Hour)
    • Check out Ozobots, tiny robots that can use color as code! You’ll start using colorful visual cues and then dive into the world of block coding. These experiences set up students for success when beginning to learn coding languages.

  • Kinetic Cardboard
    • Date: Tuesday, December 30th and Friday, January 2nd
    • Time: 1PM – 4PM (3 Hour)
    • Discover the intersection of art and physics with cardboard automata! Explore how using cams and simple machines can create moving characters and sculptures. Students will walk away with basic math and physics experience as well as creative thinking and engineering skills.
  • Plastic Fusion
    • Date: Tuesday, December 30th
    • Time: 10AM – 12PM (2 Hour)
    • Create your own reusable bag, tool roll, or wallet using recycled plastic! Learn how to fuse thin plastic bags and scraps into a sturdy textile and design your project. Then, learn basic hand-sewing and machine sewing techniques to create your reusable item. Sustainability has never been more fun!
  • “Behind the Glass” with Samsung
    • Date: Friday, January 2nd
    • Time: 10AM – 12PM (2 Hour)
    • Work with real Samsung professionals and technicians as you get hands-on disassembling and reassembling mobile devices just like a real repair tech! This special experience also provides a unique look into cutting-edge technology for aspiring STEM professionals.
