Summer STEAM Kids Camp 2024
Have you ever built your own egg-drop contraption? built your own musical instrument? or have you ever made your own paint??? Have you ever built your own mini-robot? How do we combine art with engineering or the sciences?
Come join the Summer STEAM Kids Camp and get hands-on education in four main types of art: music, creative writing, culinary arts, and visual arts. Within these different art styles, STEAM Kids Camp provides hands-on activities and experiments that allow students to discover the implementations of STEM within the arts and the sciences, such as biology, chemistry and physics.
Lee Academia is excited to release our curriculum lessons to use in the classroom. Each of these lessons are aligned with a specific type of art form, and the activities and experiments that are used directly connect STEM with art.
At the end of each day, students will have the opportunity to work on taking turns to speak, develop listening and communication skills and to practice public speaking as they discuss and share their creation and experiments with each other. Students will also learn to work individually, as well as in small groups in the camp. Our instructor is a former biomedical engineer, medical researcher, robotics coach, and STEM-certified. She has worked with hundreds of students in learning how to think like engineers.
Students will get to practice using:
Critical Thinking
Creativity & Imagination
Problem-Solving
STEAM skills
Data recording
Public Speaking skills
Gross Motor Skills
Communication
Data Recording and more
Students will bring home their own experiments or DIY STEAM project everyday. All handouts and materials are provided. Space will be limited, as class sizes will be kept small for effective instruction.
