ABOUT THIS CAMP
This face-to-face camp has been designed for children to enjoy, have fun and learn. Our face-to-face STEAM summer camp groups are small to enable tutors and children greater scope for interaction, dialogue, questions and answers. We motivate children to develop their understanding of science while having fun. We also stimulate children to be creative. We teach children to learn how to identify a problem and look for a solution. We also foster the development of resilience. Sometimes, some children tend to give up easily. We teach campers that they need to try for alternate solutions to a given problem.
WHAT WE TEACH
We encourage children to learn, consolidate and expand their knowledge in Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics. We focus on children building their capacity to communicate confidently and effectively. How to use and adapt science language to specific real-life contexts. We also focus on teaching STEAM within a cultural context. Children work on activities to develop problem-solving skills, teamwork and resilience.
TOPICS INCLUDE
Coding with Python, materials, city planning, transportation, chemistry, property of water and ice chemical bonding, programming robots, learning about trains, roads, highways, underground systems and transport networks.
DIFFERENTIATION
At Richer Education, we understand that ‘one size does not fit all‘. Therefore, our tutors and mentors differentiate the content of our sessions. We ensure that all children, regardless of their level of knowledge, are engaged at the appropriate level and pace.
