STEM Summer Camps

  • STEM SUMMER CAMPS
    STEM Summer Camps This summer students had the opportunity to attend a variety of STEM related camps. The summer camps included math clubs, origami, forensic science, future doctors and cryptography. Some camps had integrated STEM activities including robotics, computer coding, calculator coding and photography and video software.

    Students in calculator coding create a lego figure and then describe the steps needed for someone else to build the figure. Having a sequence of precise instructions is the first step in creating code. 

    Origami camp participants realize that precision is key when engineering their creations. Students raced paper airplanes and jumping frogs then created works of art with their geometric creations.
