414 - Forest Edge ES - Winter 2020 - STEAM Exploration Projects For students in grades K-5 - Reston,, VA 2020

Filled with engaging activities to spark an interest in the students and teach critical thinking. Make & Take Home Robotics/Science/Engineering Jump into the world of Robotics/Science/Engineering by experimenting with various types of robotic/science/engineering toys. This course relies on a distinct teaching method. Instructions provided so that children of all ages start with very simple mechanisms consisting of a few motors and gears and eventually build up to more complex structures with infrared controllers and circuit boards. We will explore physics, electronics, and robotics technology as we build our own toys to take home. LEGO Robotics (Construction & Programming) This activity, surely, teaches the budding engineers and future generation of programmers to be problem solvers. Take the challenge with MINDSTORMS NXT 2.0 & 2.1 and let your child's imagination take over as they design, build and program robots that robots that see, speak, feel, and move. Math-e-Magicians© Grades K-5 Discover the magic in math®™ Making the learning of math concepts FUN is what we do best at Fairbrook Academy (a subsidiary of the Imagination Tree foundation. Learning basic concepts of math can be boring and mind numbing for many students; unless, of course, they learn these models and theories through games, props, and hands-on activities that make learning these concepts fun and exciting.
