Description
eady, STEM, Go! In this program, children learn foundational science and find out how STEM is at work in the world around them! They make mixtures and explore the science of motion and energy. They also discover the technology that powers our modern world. Classes in this series include: Radical Robots Children explore how robots make our lives easier. They program a robot to move through an obstacle course and then control an automaton through sound and light. Get a taste of robotics engineering by building your very own Robo-Hand! Life in the Seas Children learn about the vast range of life found in the sea—from plankton to sponges to whales! They learn how living things are adapted to their ocean habitats and find out what humans can do to protect ocean life. Alter your perception of marine life by looking through your Anaglyph Sea Puzzle. Energy Burst Children experiment with potential and kinetic energy as they pop, jump, and flip with hopping, swimming, and swinging toys. Children learn about the potential of stored energy in wind-up gadgets. Apply the knowledge of potential and kinetic energy with your own Catapult+. All About Animals Children go beyond feathers, fins, and fur to find out more about the habitats, anatomy, and life cycles of amazing creatures. They experiment with camouflage and learn to identify and imitate sounds that animals make with their Cat Camouflage take-home. Super Power Sources Children check out power generation using both mechanical force and chemical reactions. They turn on light bulbs and fans and find out wat makes a battery work. They learn about renewable and non-renewable energy sources and just how much effort it takes to power machines! Produce your very own light energy with your Crank'n'Shine. Moving Motion Children learn all about the forces behind the movement of planes, trains, and automobiles. They explore Newton's laws of motion and get a feel for friction, inertia, and gravity. They see how mass affects movement and try out some physics tricks! Continue the fun at home with your Super Copter! Mix It Up Children shake up solutions and make mixtures with common household elements. They learn about the different parts of mixtures and how to separate solutions. Children explore filtering technology and follow a color-changing experiment to see how useful suspensions can be. Children also get to mix up their very own Super Sorter! Get Connected Children take on telecommunications and check out the power of sound. They learn about the technology developed to allow for long-distance communications and explore the limits of low-power radio signals. Continue the fun at home with the Wired World take-home!
