likes to break things apart to see what’s inside? If so, they’re going to love Snapology’s
Foundational Engineering: Machines and Contraptions program! This program gives your student
the tools they need to understand mechanical movement and the importance of simple machines.
They will see these moving parts up-close as they follow instructions to build various machines and
contraptions, then use the models to develop new design ideas, test out physics concepts, and
even play games with their partners and classmates. Whether they are the creative-constructive
type or prefer the inquisitive-deconstructive way of learning, this program is sure to spark their
engineering interests!
and spinning rides, but have they ever thought about the science that goes into building those
rides and the people who are responsible for designing them? In Snapology’s Amusement Park
Engineering class, students will become engineers of their own amusement park rides and will
learn the core physics and engineering concepts used to make a ride thrilling!
SPRING (LAST 6 WEEKS: March 19 – April 30)
K-6th ROBOTICS CAMP
In Snapology’s robotics camp, your S.T.E.A.M lover will participate in a variety of robotic activities. Your student will be taught how to effectively utilize sensors, how different mechanical components work in their robots, and how programming is a challenging but rewarding skill that they can master with just a little practice! They will also get the opportunity to develop their computational thinking skills by playing with modular, robotic cubes known as Cubelets®! Imagine this- every way your student snaps the magnetic cubes together it creates a unique robot, but what really matters is how they figure out the perfect robot to solve a challenge!
