Get ready to have the best WEEK EVER! Gotta go fast โ straight into STEM! In this action-packed Snapology camp inspired by Sonic the Hedgehog, campers will team up to engineer a sprawling Green Hill Zone, design their own high-speed Sonic levels packed with loops, ramps, and obstacles, and hunt for golden rings hidden among the bricks. Along the way, they'll explore real STEM concepts like motion, force, terrain design, and engineering problem-solving, while sharpening their critical-thinking skills with a Sonic-themed game of 20 Questions. With creative builds, friendly competition, and plenty of zooming imagination, campers will race through a world where speed, science, and teamwork collide. VIEW EXPERIENCE TRAILER HERE WHAT THE STUDENTS WILL LEARN WHAT THE STUDENTS WILL LEARN Creativity & Critical Thinking: In this program, creativity is at the front and center of everything we do. Each activity encourages students to embrace their imagination and create sport-inspired items with a unique, personalized twist. By using visual aids, holding creative classroom brainstorming sessions, and giving basic building parameters, students will be supported as they take creative risks and are guided when they arenโt sure what to build next. Problem Solving and Experimentation: Students will use their various LEGOยฎ models to complete a series of building and engineering challenges. Through observation and predictions, students will test how manipulating their models can result in an unexpected outcome! They will then use this knowledge to design and build their own contraptions inspired by our favorite summer games! Engineering Concepts: With the guidance of a Snapology Instructor, your students will build models that utilize gears, wheels, axles, and more. These models will become a hands-on tool to learn about the sport being discussed as well as physics concepts such as pulleys, gears, levers, and more! Teamwork & Collaboration Skills: Even the best engineers need to work with others to do their best! At Snapology, we emphasize that thereโs power in teamwork and constantly work to develop healthy, respectful collaborations between students. Through group planning, building, and modification, your student will become more cognizant of how to interact with their peers in a respectful and productive way. ๐ผ๐ฟ๐ฟ๐๐๐๐๐๐ผ๐ ๐ฟ๐๐๐ผ๐๐๐: Drop off begins each day at 8:30am.
