NASA Astro Camp
|
Developed with NASA based activities, this camp explores what it really means to be an astronaut and an aerospace engineer combining science, engineering, and math all in one. Students will be building, launching, and exploring the various structures launched into space while thinking about the scientific factors that go into real NASA space explorations. This camp introduces children to the principles of engineering through hands-on NASA themed activities in which they will apply the engineering design process to solve problems and generate solutions. The emphasis is on students understanding that engineers must imagine and plan before they begin to create and test. Come join us for a great time!

STEAM Explorations Camp
|
Does your child like to explore science, solve problems, use technology, and express their artistic talent? If so, then CT STEM Academy is the perfect place for your child! This camp allows the your child to use various activities such as Ozobots, Lego Robotics, Lego Building, and various other activities to learn about STEM. In addition to this, your child can also use their artistic ability to create a design for them that they love. In the past we have done various activities such as make a scaled model of the solar system in which they can paint the planets and visualize what the solar system looks like. We have also created peppermint racer cars which can be colored and designed to their liking allowing them to truly experience what it is like to be an innovator and engineer.
