Upcoming Build a Kaleidoscope

  •  07/27/2024
     11:00 am CDT - 11:50 am CDT

First, we’ll take some time to explore mirrors and reflections.  Can you adjust the mirrors so it looks like your eyes disappear? So that you have four eyes?  Adjust the angle of the mirrors and watch the number of reflections multiply.  What happens to the reflection when a mirrors surface is curved.    Parents, this is a time to explore together with you kids.

Then, we’ll build a kaleidoscope to take home.  Ages 4+ can build this project with adult help.  Ages 8+ can be fairly independent with this build.  Adults are welcome to stay or drop off for ages 8+.

Upcoming Stop Motion Camp

  •  07/29/2024
     1:00 pm CDT - 3:30 pm CDT
  •  07/30/2024
     1:00 pm CDT - 3:30 pm CDT
  •  07/31/2024
     1:00 pm CDT - 3:30 pm CDT

July 29-31 from 1:00pm-3:30pm  Ages 8-13

Come learn how to bring your ideas to life through stop motion animation!  We will start with what stop motion animation is and how it works, then explore sound effects, animation set building, lighting, and cool animation techniques that will take your animation to the next level.  Each student will create their own animation during camp and have it ready to share with friends and family afterwards.

Students are required to have a free Cloud Stop Motion account before the first day of camp and must have their username and password with them while attending. You are welcome to send a copy in an envelop just in case your child forgets.  Please register for the individual account-not an organizational account.  Organizational accounts may not be accesible in class and the log-in process is complicated. Without a personal account, animations can not be saved.

The Mentor STEM Club is for students in middle and high school who are interested in tech and have some experience with robotics and

programming (or perhaps other tech subjects we haven’t thought of yet.) Instructor permission is required for this activity.  Student

presentations on topics of interest are encouraged.  Presenters will need to meet with one of the teachers to discuss their topic.  We’ll also be studying the Make Stuff Move kits received through a grant.  Once we have a firm grasp, we’ll schedule several free community events to share what we’ve learned with other students. 

We plan to offer this club throughout the school year.  Students in this club are expected to volunteer to help mentor younger students. 

There is no set number of volunteer hours.

Thursdays 5:00-5:50

 

Aug 29 – Topic to be determined

Sept 5 and 12 – Soren S. presenting on Game Boy programming.
