STEM SPECIALTY CAMP
from 2023 Summer Camp Brochure
by Jdorsey3
CODING & GAME DESIGN
Young learners dive into programming with Scratch, a visual programming environment with drag-and-drop creative learning environment developed by MIT Media Lab. Campers use code blocks and library of characters enabling them to focus on the logic & enjoy the learning experience! Working on different levels, young coders think creatively, reason systematically and problemsolve to create their own interactive stories, games & animations. While developing games and apps, participants will also learn programming concepts like variables, conditional statements, animation, loops, event handling, and operators. This program meets Monday through Friday.

Heavy Equipment Engineering
Future engineers will explore the fundamental principles and parts that make some of the world’s heaviest machinery work. Students will be building a working model of big machines that can pull, press, and lift heavy loads. By the end of the camp, students will have a better understanding of how these machines generate the forces and pressures they need to get the job done. Campers also get to take home their working models.
Location: Lincoln Hall School
Water And Theme Park Engineering
Young engineers enjoy the thrill of learning about water park and amusement park rides by building working models of various rides while learning engineering principles, circuitry, mechanism, and the design cycle. Campers also get to take home their working models.
