Sensory Discovery and STEM Robotics

Does one need snow to make a snowman?

Children in the Sensory Discovery Activity would tell you, “No.” Using baking soda, cornstarch, shaving cream and good finger dexterity, lovely miniature snowmen were made.

     

Do you need a kitchen hot pad on which to place your teapot straight off the stove?

Why buy one when you can make it with clothes pegs, paint and sound concentration, as the children did in their after-school activity.

 

In STEM Robotics Club, students learned about different types of engineering, forces and rotation. Using educational robotics kits, they problem-solved in teams and built their robots, which they were proud to show.

     

Whether discovering aptitude in science and maths or developing skills toward future careers, the students agree that through it all they are having fun.
