Middle School Age STEAM Classes
Once they have reached a stage where they are ready to engage in a more instructor-guided experience, our middle school aged students are ready for extra challenges.
We utilize a project based approach with these older students. It is a student-centered, yet instructor-guided, approach where participants gain a deeper understanding of subjects through hands-on projects, active exploration, and real-world problem-solving and challenges.
Many themes will be explored: from robotics, to Mars exploration, to giant numbers, to human body systems. No matter the theme, our older Thrivers are engaged, challenged and presented with new information and ideas.
As always, there is plenty of time for socialization and making friends during this time of life when cultivating friendship is so important.
