ASIJ ELC STEAM CLUB – S2 2023

PROGRAM DESCRIPTION

Join the fun with SchoolTribe’s STEAM Club! Offered at the American School In Japan Early Learning Center for currently enrolled students.

SchoolTibe’s STEAM Club is science technology, engineering, arts, and math (STEAM). This program encourages critical thinking and problem solving while strengthening children’s ability to turn 2D prototypes (ideas) into 3D working models (products). Lessons in science provide an intro to experimental design and scientific methodology. While our tech classes provide an early entry into robotic manipulation and coding. Our classes are geared toward leaders of the future with an interest in product design and development, and a passion for creating, building, tinkering, and problem-solving with the use of technology in a safe and nurturing environment.

WHAT WILL I LEARN IN THIS STEAM CLASS?

SCIENCE: Explore energy’s ability to cause motion or create change.

TECHNOLOGY: Learn to code with computers and iPads using simple commands

ENGINEERING: Develop, test, and refine robotic prototypes.

ART: Design and problem solve as a creative process.

MATH: Change numeric variables to manipulate systems

WHAT ARE THE BENEFITS OF THIS CLASS?

SchoolTribe classes foster children’s curiosity and creativity and offer kids the opportunity to explore new passions.  A strong STEAM curriculum in early life lets your child be better prepared for multi-skilled job demands of the future.   Join us on a journey of endless discovery and innovation.
