We believe that STE(A)M Project Based Learning engages students in deep and long-lasting learning and inspires for them a love of learning and personal connection to their academic experience.
With our camp, engage your children in the engineering design process with STEM Rising! We will serve grades fifth through eighth.
Week One: “Do Something Great” – The Engineering Design Process
Week Two: “Do More.” – Reverse Engineering
Week Three: “Live, Work, Create.” – Write It, Do It…
Week Four: “Under the Magnifying Glass” – Crime Busters
Week Five: “The Wheel Goes Round & Round” – Build a Big Wheel
Week Six: “A Wild Ride” – Roller Coasters
STEM Rising blends content mastery, meaningful work, and personal connection to create powerful learning experiences, in terms of both academic achievement and students’ personal growth.
What is a virtual camp? Due to COVID-19, we will use TEACH IT Labs Institute and Zoom to deliver an engaging and fun camp experience at your home. At the time of your camp, your child will join our virtual camp room on Zoom. Our STEM educators will facilitate activities for the duration of your camp, except for one or two short “go get the wiggles out” breaks during the camp window. We’ll keep your child busy with projects for the 4-hour window of your camp.
What will I need to provide? Campers will need access to a computer or tablet, a desk or table space to work on projects, and a few everyday household items such as scissors, a writing utensil, or a ruler. A list of household items will be sent to you ahead of your camp.
To make our camps suitable for a variety of ages, we’ve indicated the level of help that each age child may need. Please pay attention to these categories when registering, as they are not the same for all camps
Each participating child must be registered separately. All camp registrations will close at 10 a.m. on the day it closes.
Exploration Academy makes the safety and enjoyment of all campers a top priority. We recognize that virtual camps create a different environment than in-person camps and have developed our behavior policy accordingly. Exploration Academy reserves the right to cancel camps in the event of low enrollment, illness, etc. In the unlikely event that a camp is canceled, parents will be notified and will be given the option to switch to another camp.
