THIS PROGRAM IS OFFERED TO GRADES JK - SK
January 30 – March 6, 2026 (6 lessons)
Every Friday, 4:00 pm - 5:45 pm
* Please note there is no lesson on January 23 (PA Day)
Maximum 16 students; minimum 4 students (1 teacher and 1 assistant will be arranged for each class)
$231.00
Program Overview
The purpose of this program is to introduce the principles of STEM and basic subjects of classical mechanics through the use of building blocks and mechanical parts. Children delve into various facets of basic classical mechanics like laws of physics, forces, energy, torque, and leverage and more.
Program objectives
Embed science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM) concepts from an early age
Introduce children to the fundamentals of classical mechanics
Improve fine motor skills
Cultivate critical problem-solving and creative thinking skills
Nurture a love for science and discovery
Expand interpersonal communication skills
Encourage team building, cooperation and group play skills
Learn key principles of engineering and physics
Develop ability to analyze engineering processes
Lesson Overview
Week 1: Newton’s 1st Law: a spinner continues in its existing state of rest or motion, unless something stops it from continuing in its rest or motion state
Week 2: Newton’s 2nd Law: The greater an object’s weight is, the more force it will take to move it; Newton’s 3rd Law: An object A that applies force (pushes) on object B, cause object B to apply an equal and opposite force (push) on object A
Week 3: Electric Motor and Conveyor Belt: To understand electric motor and the concept of a conveyor system
Week 4: Belt Transmission: To understand belt transmission and speed-decreasing transmission
Week 5: Gear Transmission: To understand the gear transmission concept and learn how to implement speed - increasing transmission on a gear transmission.
Week 6: Speed Decreasing Transmission: To learn how to implement speed decreasing transmission on a gear transmission
