K-3 Students

C-S L'il Panthers Build a Better World

In collaboration with the local Public Library, we will explore ways to build a better world through books, building, games, and STEAM activities. We will learn new ways to help make positive changes in the world; one brick at a time!

STEM Project Based Learning

We will be focusing on one specific STEM activity each week which will include all of the aspects of STEM, including some technology! This will be a project based learning opportunity for students. Some of our project based learning will include exploring weathering rocks, phases of water, weather observations, pulse rate, and more!

Arts & Crafts with STEM

Students will be able to participate in making crafts while learning important science, technology, engineering, and math concepts! They may be using manipulatives to build a graph or create a story box from a common read aloud!

Green Thumb

Students will learn about the science of gardening. They will plan seeds, watch them grow, and will be able to eat the product! They will learn how they can grow their own food to sustain a healthy lifestyle. Students will spend a lot of time outside, writing journals, and learning about our outside world!

4-8 Students

Summer Paws

PAWS offers a variety of lessons and activities created for classroom and community presentations for young people. Through multiple forms of media, games, writing and drawing exercises, storytelling and hands-on activities, students learn about being responsible and respectful to all living beings. Some of the activities and lesson include: Introduction to responsible pet care, dog safety, overpopulation of shelters, basic needs of all animals, humane living.

Invention Convention

Fostering the development of important science skills and thinking skills is an ongoing challenge. Students should be given opportunities to solve problems, think creatively, experiment, and work with data throughout the summer. The Invention Convention is an event that gives students an opportunity to demonstrate these skills independently as they invent a new product or process.

The Ultimate STEM Challengers

Have you ever engineered a roller coaster out of straws and pins? Or have you made a conveyor belt from a tissue box? Do you know just how strong raw spaghetti noodles are? How can you construct a paper airplane to make it fly the farthest? In this group, you will get to spend time conducting different STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math) challenges using regular, every day objects! Students will use collaboration and communication skills to work with a group of peers.
