Description
Winter Camp 24-25
For full-day camps, we have a partnership program with PiArt Music Studio. Please give us a call at 604.283.6877 ext 1 to learn more.
Instead of uninstructed play or watching TV passively, instead of free play at home or daycare, STEMA can help kids have fun while gaining meaningful knowledge.
Our interdisciplinary programs (robotics, coding & digital arts) are designed to spark and develop students’ capability to
- Think critically and analytically
- Be creative, be self-aware
- Explore and take thoughtful risks
- Work effectively in a team, or independently
- Present their ideas confidently
- Lead and be a good leader
During the camp period, students will have hands-on experience working with different STEAM/STEM activities:
- Robotics:
- Build robots, machinery, and structures using different materials.
- Learn about the various science and engineering concepts behind each build.
- Explore coding concepts, and code robots to perform certain tasks
- Computer programing:
- Younger students: learn block-based coding to make interactive stories, animation, and mini-games. Children as young as five can start learning coding to develop logical thinking and problem-solving skills. We have block coding with no/little text for pre-readers, to begin with. Block code builds a very strong foundation for kids as they move on to text-based coding/ real code (Python, JavaScrip) at higher levels.
- Older students/ students with prior knowledge in block code: Work with text-based coding like Python, and markup languages (HTML/CSS) to create websites.
- Digital Arts: Work with 3D design and 3D modelling, storytelling, and movie production. Students create their designs in a 3D platform and can choose their designs printed out.
- Science & Engineering: Construct robots, structures, and machinery from cardboard and different craft materials. Learn the science and engineering concepts behind each build.
Please bring nut-free snacks and water bottles.
