For Grades K-1

Mythbusters isn’t just for big kids. In this class for students in kindergarten and grade 1, we’ll read a different story each week to our kindergarten and first grade scientists and then conduct hands-on science experiments to test the truthfulness or recreate certain elements of each story! When we read Jon Scieszka’s The True Story of The 3 Little Pigs, for instance, we’ll test the power of wind – can it really blow down a house? How does air pressure work? Let’s build our own houses and see if they stand up to our air pump! For Doreen Cronin’s Diary of a Worm, we’ll each build an earthworm habitat to take home! Join the fun!

Adventures with Robots is on a mission. They aim to bring STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) to more kids at an earlier age, and they want to make STEM irresistibly FUN, like it should be. And what better way to do that than to get kids hooked on robotics. Or building stuff, like real engineers do?
