Jr. Engineering (Grades 3 and 4)

This class is designed to introduce students (both boys and girls) to the fun and exciting world of LEGO® Engineering. Join us as we explore, investigate, and solve problems while we learn about the building blocks of engineering – levers, wheels, gears, and pulleys. Using LEGO® component parts the children will work in teams and learn to build several simple machines. Once we have mastered building we will add a special motor to make our creations “go.” This is a fun, hands-on class exploring how simple machines work together to make things move.
