About this Event
Class Experience
Fab Lab is non-stop, hands-on FUNdamentals in physics, chemistry, and computer programming to build a lifelong love of science! We’re creating all kinds of slime, turning milk into plastic, creating electricity with fruit, writing secret messages with invisible ink, creating tiny volcanos, water that glows in the dark, super bouncing balls, fireworks in a jar, Galileo-inspired periscopes and kaleidoscopes, gravity defying beads, and elephant toothpaste! We’ll learn how to prototype and code our contraptions with Makey Makey microcontrollers, making anything from a ball shooting battle bots or a music sequencer to recording your raps, beats, and loops with Scratch. Step into the Fab Lab!
All About Hands-On
Every day of STEM Camp brings new hands-on STEAM projects, creativity, discovery, games, and lots of outdoor play! Every week of STEM Camp features hands-on STEAM crafts and introductions/skill-building in Scratch coding and 3D design. Games include: Capture the Flag Laser Tag, Water Balloon Olympics, soccer shootout, mafia, escape the room, red light green light, Scavenger Hunts!
Your Favorite Characters & Stories
We’ll create daily projects inspired by our favorite characters and stories from Disney, Lego, Marvel, and Pixar and games like Pokemon, Mario, Bed Wars, Geometry Dash, Animal Crossing, and Among Us. And we’ll create lifetime memories with our daily camp traditions like DJ Playlist Day, Rainbow True Colors Day, and Hero Day.
Earn Badges & Challenge Coins
We’ll take on daily Quest Challenges by joining Team Fiero or Team Flow, seeking our personal best, with help from new friends. We’ll work on the hero within as we earn Challenge sticker badge achievements for our Character Cards for every project we create like Courage, Problem Solver, Upstander and Changemaker.
Learn & Grow
Creative collaboration gives us opportunities for social emotional development and confidence building. Project problem-solving helps us practice executive functioning skills like decision-making, organization, patience, and self-awareness. (STEAM: science, tech, engineering, arts, math)
