Sample Program Curriculum
- Drone Makerspace. The week starts with the fundamentals of drone flight and control. Students will work with a teammate to learn about drones and complete assembly. Kids advance their skills and muscle memory through indoor flying and computer simulations.
- Galileo’s Astronomy. Students and their partner will set up an optical bench, experiment with lenses, prisms, and beam splitters, then assemble the parts into a refractor telescope. They will be challenged while experimenting with pendulums and safely viewing the features of the sun using a professional grade telescope.
- Super Science Sampler. The sampler is designed for students entering 3rd- 5th grades. The week covers rocketry, chemistry, drone clinic & professional gyroscope demonstration, microscope lab, astronomy, engineering, and more!
