Sound and Movement
Ever wanted to create your own school of rock at home but your parents wouldn’t let you? Well, now is your chance! We’ll use kinesthetic experiences to discover what causes sound and how it relates to movement as you boogie down throughout the week.
- Discover the elements of sound and their correlation to movement.
- Experiment with rhythm, sequence, and pattern as you strengthen your math and spatial reasoning skills.
- Explore tone and pitch as you theorize about how and why sound changes based on its source and distance.
Myths and Legends
- June 25 – June 29
- July 30 – Aug 3
Unleash your imagination as you design unique fantastical creatures based on famous stories and myths using different media including recycled/reused items, natural materials, paper, clay, wire, etc.
- Learn the entire design process as you translate an idea into a two-dimensional and then three-dimensional form.
- Explore the relationships between size, scale, and proportion.
- Learn how different colors, shapes, and textures can be manipulated to create different versions of your original concept.
Marvels of the Natural World
- July 2 – July 6

Calling all architects and engineers! Design, build and test your structures as you learn to apply different construction principles. Since working with friends is not only fun but also very helpful in the creative process, you will develop construction strategies in collaboration with your peers.
- Learn the basic engineering design process as you experiment with balance, gravity, measurement, symmetry, and spatial relationships.
- Develop your divergent thinking as you prototype different three-dimensional designs in different environments.
- Play with different combinations of materials including rocks and logs, metal and magnets, and new and recycled materials as you test their impact on your structures.
