DESCRIPTION OF PROGRAM
-
This is a hands-on class, focused on a STEM based curriculum, where students will design and build machines, catapults, pyramids, derby cars, buildings and other constructions out of LEGO® bricks. While exploring engineering, architecture and physics, students will develop problem solving and critical thinking skills.
-
Participants build a new model each class. Architectural concepts are taught while assembling buildings, bridges and other structures.
-
Once the project is completed, students use the rest of their time to expand their gadgets and collaborate with one another
CURRICULUM & INSTRUCTIONAL CONTENT
-
Students will work in a lab-type setting using LEGO® bricks with an integrated curriculum based on math and science.
-
Instructional content includes concepts of friction, gravity and torque, scale, gears, axles and beams.
-
The material covered each session will vary depending on students’ ages, experience, and skill level.
-
All materials will be provided.
GOALS
-
For students to play and socialize with friends while learning fundamentals of engineering and architecture in a noncompetitive setting.
-
To build problem-solving skills, provide an opportunity for creative expression and foster an appreciation of how things work.
-
To help students understand that Architecture and Engineering are viable career choices.
BENEFITS
-
Students already know how to build with LEGO® bricks, but with a little coaching they can learn engineering, architecture and concepts of physics and mathematics using the plastic components.
- Students will develop problem-solving and critical thinking skills.
