Description

9AM-12PM: Beginner Amazing Animals Robotics

Lions and Tigers and Bears... Oh my! In Amazing Animals Robotics, students create their own robotic animals. Build them; program them; and then make them RRROOOAARR!!! Students have fun and learn about engineering, coding, circuits, and sensors as they build Dinosaurs, Dolphins, Panda Bears, and much more. Your child is sure to have a wild time as they build, learn, and play!

12PM-1PM: Lunch Break

Students should bring nut-free lunch, snacks, and juice to eat and enjoy as they get hungry throughout the day.  Water and restrooms are available.  If weather permits, campers will be taken outside to walk and enjoy the playground nearby.

1PM-4PM: Beginner Engineers

 

NextGen SmartyPants' Beginner Technic® Engineers teaches kids about Engineering components and Physics concepts through fun and engaging projects.  Learn how to use Gears, Pulleys, Springs, Axle, Bushings, and more as you build and design your own systems.  Students build Rovers, Cranes, Catapults, and more as they learn about angles, forces, and momentum and apply the math skills they learn in school via challenging, hands-on experiences.

NextGen's Beginner Engineers program consists of 18-lessons, each of which take 60-90 minutes to complete.  Students during our 3-hour Summer Camps will experience (2) new lessons, or (1) lesson plus an engineering-related project that requires them to apply concepts from previous lessons.  If your child has taken a 4 or 6-week Beginner Engineers program before, the lesson they will receive will pickup where they left off in curriculum, ensuring they are experiencing new lessons each time or be bumped up into our Intermediate Engineers curriculum.  

 

Final Notes

  • All Campers are expected to be fully self-sufficient and on respectful behavior at all times.  Students are expected to address any special needs, medications, bathroom responsibilities, and masks and social distancing (if necessary - hopefully not!!) for themselves. 
  • Students are welcome to eat snacks throughout the day and lunch between 12PM-1PM.  'Please' no nuts of any kind may be brought into our maker studio.  
  • Please pack an extra change of clothes, just in case of spillage or other accident.
  • Early-morning drop-off and/or late-afternoon pickup are available.
  • Please contact us at any time with any additional clarifications and questions: (860) 272-4000.
