STEAM Lab Fun!- Heartland Charter School

Registration window August 1, 10:00 a.m. -August 10, 7:00 p.m.

The students will have the opportunity to explore Littlebits, which are electrical prototyping components that children absolutely love.

The teacher, Joe, will introduce and explain the various components. Students would work in small teams to explore and familiarize themselves with the materials.

Next, they will complete a challenge utilizing the varied materials provided. Students will then build, test, and iterate until they have a project they are happy with.

This will be a fun time to learn and create together!

***Littlebits are engaging electrical circuit "bits" that students can use to learn about circuits and electronics. The bits are small circuit boards with specific functions that snap together with magnets. Functions include lights, sound, sensors and buttons. Students of all ages and skill levels will intuitively grasp the basics of circuits as they use the engineering design process to create their own inventions to meet a design challenge.

Ticket cost:

• Students $25.00

There are two time slots to choose from.

• 11:00
• 12:00
