Description
STEAM FUN is a science innovation program for children aged 6 and above. We focus on science innovation and real-world application. We encourage students to create and innovate with common household materials, such as cardboard, wooden blocks, and recycled materials to create science toys, making kids feel that science is fun and relevant in their everyday life! Each hands-on class is 90 minutes long and begins with an intriguing science magic show, followed by fun experiments and group games to reveal the science behind the magic. Students then have 50 minutes of hands-on time to apply what they learn in class to create innovative science projects such as air-powered balloon cars, animal circus balance toys, electromagnet-powered animations, cup-made dancing robots, and fast-growing micro green gardens. These innovation projects extend the school’s K-6 science curriculum and provide kids with real opportunities to create, not just learn.
The course is taught in English, with key science vocabulary provided in both English and Chinese for reference. At the end of each class, students are provided a “Design Story” sheet to review key points they learned in class, enhancing kids’ capabilities of show and tell in the long term. Upon completion, each student will have an impressive portfolio showcasing their year-round science projects. This portfolio not only highlights your kid’s creativity and real problem-solving skills but also helps your kid stand out when applying for schools or participating in science fairs. Our aim is to help your kid grow as a creative thinker, competent doer, and confident speaker!
Please note: the prerequisite for Level 2 is competition of the Level 1 class.
The course is primarily taught in English, with key vocabulary provided in both English and Chinese for reference.
