Jr. Makers Club II: Gr. K-3

Jump into an exciting new school year with all-new lessons! Whether you're a new or returning student, the Engineering For Kids Jr. Makers Club offers hands-on, engaging activities each week to spark curiosity and creativity. Students will explore engineering concepts while developing essential 21st-century skills like problem-solving, critical thinking, and teamwork, building confidence to tackle challenges in and out of the classroom.

Some of the projects include:

• Chemical Engineering Witch’s Brew- Students experiment with different materials to create a bubbling, chemical‑reaction‑powered witch’s brew.
• Mechanical Engineering Propeller Car- Students get a hands‑on lesson in air‑powered thrust and inertia as they design and test a propeller‑driven car.
• Marine Engineering Reef Relief- Students learn about the importance of coral reefs and design their own model reef structure to withstand an underwater “quake.”
• Mechanical Engineering Spinner- Students build their own spinning toy and learn how momentum keeps a rotating object in motion.
• Electrical Engineering Light It Up- Students explore basic circuits by building a simple LED‑powered light‑up toy.
• Civil Engineering Gingerbread House- Students are challenged to design and build a sturdy, non‑edible gingerbread house using structural engineering principles.
