Description:

Full day option includes Zany Zoo Engineers in the morning 9 am - noon, and Twisted Fairy Tales in the afternoon 1 pm - 4 pm with supervised lunch. Young engineers must bring their own lunch. We are nut-free campus.

Zany Zoo Engineers: There is a big problem at your local zoo… the animals are very unhappy! They have outgrown their cages and are bored by their basic, concrete surroundings. In these lessons students will learn about engineering, mathematics, animals, and habitats while advancing their literacy skills through a variety of read alouds. They will work as zoo engineers and zoologists while using the EFK Engineering Design Process to design and build solutions to a variety of engineering challenges.

Twisted Fairy Tales: Ever wonder how we got to the Happily Ever After in traditional fairy tales? Students will explore a few fairy tales from different points of view and engage in activities to investigate solutions for each fairy tale’s obstacles. In the Twisted Fairy Tales Camp, we will design a getaway vehicle for the heroine from Kate and the Beanstalk, help The Three Billy Goats Fluff devise a method to cross the bridge quietly and not wake the Troll, and construct an edible reef entirely from candy to protect The Three Little Fish from the Big Bad Shark! Join us as we explore the Engineering of Fairy Tales.
