Dirt Detectives
Soil is an essential source of life and nutrients for many living things!
STEM Storytime - Solar Eclipse Phases Fold-Up
Get excited for the total solar eclipse!
3D Printed Animal Tracks
Participants learn how to identify animals that may live in their environment using “signs”. Then, they will learn how photogrammetry can be used to scan and make digital models out of animal tracks found in nature so that they can be 3D printed.
Secret Handshake
Learners develop computational thinking skills through creating a secret handshake.
Marshmallow Tower
Learners develop algorithmic thinking by designing and building a freestanding structure that can support an object, using toothpicks and marshmallows
Can You Program a Human Robot?
Learners create simple commands to help guide a human "robot" to retrieve an item in the room.
Can You Guess This Number?
Learners try to guess their partner’s number by asking the least number of ‘yes’ or ‘no’ questions.
Can You Debug This Code?
Learners develop debugging and critical thinking skills by fixing a code to help get a rocket ship to the moon
Can You Debug These Math Problems?
Learners are presented with six solved mathematical problems and must work to debug these problems to determine which are solved correctly and which are not.
Code and Go Mice
Welcome to the science of computational thinking! In this workshop, students learn how to code using a Code and Go Robot Mouse which can be programmed with travel directions to navigate through mazes.
Code and Go Mice - Community Event
The goal of this activity is for students to program a mouse to get from the starting position to the cheese wedges without going on squares occupied by cats or mouse traps.
The Kinesiology Kit (Move it! and Skeleton Science)
This workshop focuses on two main topics within the field of Kinesiology: exercise and the Skeletal System.
Fish Population Game
How can we make sure that we will always have fish in our rivers, lakes, streams and ponds? In this game, participants learn about some of the factors that affect their local fish populations and solutions to help stabilize the populations.
Let's Talk Garbage Pollution
In this workshop, participants will learn about the effect that landfills have on the environment and how landfills contribute to climate change.
