Upcoming Mentor Training

Are you ready to share what you’ve learned with others? 

LabSpace is looking for enthusiastic middle and high school students to join our summer camp mentor team! While LEGO Mindstorms or Spike building experience is a definite plus, we’re really looking for students who are passionate about STEM and eager to share their enthusiasm with younger learners. Mentors will assist instructors with a variety of camp activities, including engineering challenges, art projects related to technology, and of course, robotics. Prior to camp, you’ll help build robot challenge sets, cut out cardboard for projects, and explore Lego Mindstorms robot sets and building techniques.

This volunteer opportunity is a great way to develop leadership skills and gain practical experience in STEM education. Mentors will need to attend training sessions, actively participate in camp activities, and maintain a positive, helpful attitude. These opportunities require the approval of LabSpace instructors.  I encourage you to talk with instructors and ask questions to see if this opportunity is a good fit for you.

There will be free training sessions that you should plan to attend.  The current schedule is below.  I’ll be adding camp dates as we go, so you might have to check back for that.

Parents, if you are interested in being a LabSpace volunteer, we’d love to talk with you.  Adult volunteers can sometimes earn credit for classes for their children to help reduce tuition.

Mon, June 16 10:00-10:50

Unleash your inner engineer and artist! In this hands-on class, you’ll discover the cleverness of hinges and use them to design and build your own unique, string-powered dancing robot from cardboard. Learn how to make your robot groove and move with a simple pull of a string! Our small class size (limited to 6 participants) ensures plenty of individual attention and guidance for all learners. We encourage younger makers (ages 5-6) to join in the fun with the assistance of a parent or guardian. 7 and up will be able to do most of this project independently.

Tuition is $10 for the first child and $5 for each additional child in the same family. Registration is required.

Marshmallow Launcher – Wed, June 18 10:00-10:50

Create a pyramid-catapult to launch marshmallows!  This is a great project for ages 5-7 with an adult helper and 8+ on their own or with a helper.  When our catapults are finished, we’ll build some cup-castles to knock down! Tuition: $10

Pneumatic Crane – Thursday, June 19 10:00-10:50

Build a pneumatic crane to take home.  Makers younger than 8 should have a hands-on helper.  You’ll use air power to make your crane move. Tuition: $10

Magnetic Sculpture- Tues, June 3 1:00-1:50

Play with our magnetic pendulums and then make your own magnetic sculpture that you can take home.   What will you create?  A butterfly that visits flowers, a sea turtle swimming through the ocean?  We can’t wait to see what you create!

Ages 7+ can do this project pretty independently, but adults are always welcome to stay and help with the creation.  Under 7 are welcome, but must have a hands-on adult helper.

 

Classes that don’t meet minimum registrations will be cancelled.  Please let us know you are planning to come!

 

Please note, the mall opens at 11:00.  If your class starts before the mall opens,  you’ll need to come to the entrance nearest LabSpace so we can let you in.  Park on the HyVee side of the mall between Ross and the car wash.  Come to the mall entrance nearest the car wash.  We’ll have someone there to let you in.  If there isn’t someone there, just call (573) 645-0800 and we’ll be right there.

We’re sorry, the Lego creations won’t go home with you, but we’ll have time for pictures and video if you’d like to arrive a few minutes before pickup.
