About This Activity
Description
Grades: 1st-5th. Join the Nutty Scientists for our extended aftercare and science enrichment program with a focus on problem solving and constructing! The students will spend most of their time in our classes getting creative with designing and building our fun inventions. These lessons will all be different from our winter session lessons, making it great for new and returning students alike! A small part of the class will be focused on allowing children to find fun after a full day of school in our stations. From movement activities, to art, math games, or reading and relaxing, this is the opportunity for everyone to be met at their level no matter where their energy level is at. Instructor: Nutty Scientists staff. 6 classes. No class 5/6.
