If you like LEGO® bricks, you’ll LOVE this! Snapology provides a fun environment for children to learn science, technology, engineering, art and math using LEGO® bricks and other similar building toys. We want to inspire your children to be creators and innovators for life! Your child is sure to have a blast whether learning about sensors while building drills and magic wands, or discovering how to think in new and creative ways to self-monitor plans, generate solutions to problems, and construct innovative builds all on their own! Shhh…don’t tell them it’s educational! Session 3: KinderBots - PK/K Class Only (November 20-January 22) Children will begin to explore the world of robotics as they build simple models that teach the fundamentals of robotic design. Whether learning about sensors while building drills and magic wands or discovering ways that gears and pulleys create movement while building helicopters and robotic dogs, your child is sure to have a great time. Snapology Real Word Robotics - All Classes Except PK/K (December 3-January 21, November 20-January 22, and December 5-January 30) In Snapology's Real World Robotics class, students interested in technology will create robotic models inspired by real life robotic technologies. Students will learn about gear ratio, sensors, simple machines, and programming as they build alarm devices, earthquake detectors, robotic arms, and much more. Your child will have a blast exploring the world of robotic technologies as they build, learn, and play. Session 4: Planes, Trains & Automobiles - PK/K Class Only (January 29-March 5) In Snapology’s Planes, Trains, and Automobiles program, children will explore the world of transportation. Students will build models of their favorite forms of transportation as they learn about energy, wheels and axles, air resistance, and more. They will also learn about the history and modern use of these vehicles, and apply this knowledge to their builds. Foundational Engineering - All Classes Except PK/K January 28-March 11, January 29-March 5, and February 6-March 13) Does your little learner love to tinker and create new things, or are they the kind of learner who likes to break things apart to see what’s inside? If so, they’re going to love Snapology’s Foundational Engineering: Machines and Contraptions program! This program gives your student the tools they need to understand mechanical movement and the importance of simple machines. They will see these moving parts up-close as they follow instructions to build various machines and contraptions, then use the models to develop new design ideas, test out physics concepts, and even play games with their partners and classmates. Whether they are the creative-constructive type or prefer the inquisitive-deconstructive way of learning, this program is sure to spark their engineering interests!
