By learning to creatively engage with the electronics as tools, we bring our students the skills to interact fully with the modern world. And we make lots of fun projects along the way.Circuit Lab programs give kids the opportunity to create devices by blending technical concepts with hands-on experimentation in a creative environment. We use the latest technologies including Arduino and Raspberry Pi to design smarter flashlights, race cars, musical instruments, games, and more. Each class session begins with a brief conceptual overview before launching into an interactive, hands-on activity.Circuit Lab programs are a fun and creative way to give kids fluency and confidence in an increasingly necessary skill. We are excited to teach your kids the tools to design and create whatever they imagine!Circuit Makers 101:Let’s get creative with electricity! In this junior hands-on electronics class, students will gain experience with creating their own electronics: design custom light-up greeting cards, electric games, mazes and even musical instruments. Each class day consists of a circuitry lesson and a hands-on electronics project, using components like lights, buzzers, switches, motors, and sensors. Circuit Lab instructors will help students to create projects that they can be proud of each dayWINTER SESSIONFLORENCE ROCHE: Grades K-2Dates: Wednesday's: : 3/4, 3/11, 3/18, 3/25, 4/1, 4/8Time: 3:20-4:20pmLocation: Florence Roche CafeteriaCost: $195.00No refund given for withdrawal after 2/18/26
