8-11 year old Elementary-age Class:
Inventor's Lab
This class will think like inventors and creators! Together, we’ll explore the stories of famous inventors and discover how their ideas changed the world. Through hands-on activities, students will imagine, design, and build their own inventions using simple materials. They’ll learn how to solve problems, test their ideas, learn from failures, make improvements, and try again—just like real inventors do. Along the way, we’ll practice creativity, teamwork, and thinking outside the box. This class is designed to be fun, interactive, and full of imagination, while helping students build confidence in their problem solving, persistence in difficult tasks, and a love for creating and exploring new ideas.
