Ask, Test, Fizz!

Students practice scientific thinking by asking testable questions, designing controlled investigations, and running chemistry experiments while recording and interpreting results.

Bridge & River Builders

Students act as civil engineers by building and stress-testing bridges, designing water systems, and creating prototypes for capturing and using energy.

Mini Eco-Modelers

Students investigate how living things interact in ecosystems by exploring real-world ecology, building food-web and habitat models, and testing how changes ripple through a system.

Smart Helpers: Build a Simple App

Students use generative AI and chatbots as design partners to plan, build, and refine apps that solve everyday problems with thoughtful prompts and testing.

Problem-Solving Bots

Students use robotics parts, simple machines, and maker tools to prototype, test, and redesign solutions to hands-on engineering problems.

Move & Measure: Sensor Science

Students model motion and kinematics by collecting sensor data, graphing results, and using math to explain, predict, and optimize movement.

Block-Code Builders (Minecraft EE)

Students learn core coding concepts by building and debugging programs in Minecraft using block coding and introductory Python to automate actions and solve challenges.

Backyard Food Webs

Students explore how organisms and environments connect by investigating ecosystems, building food-web and habitat models, and checking how system changes affect the whole.

Money Math & Game Quest

Students apply math to real decisions through financial simulations, strategy games, and logic puzzles that build reasoning, accuracy, and problem-solving speed.

Tiny Machines: Build & Test

Students combine robotics pieces, mechanisms, and maker tools to build prototypes, test performance, and redesign engineering solutions to real challenges.
