Grades 3-5
Robots & Rockets
Camp Code: ROBRO
June 7-11
-WizKidz Science and Technology Center/ Dacula Location-
-Georgia Institute of Technology/ July 19-23
CLOSED
This course will introduce students in grades 3-5 to robotic platforms and programming languages that involve real world applications used to solve real world problems. Students learn mechanical design, construction, programming and teamwork skills. In small teams, using motors and sensors, students will explore gears and pulleys, build and control moon rovers, and finally build a robot that can find its own way and avoid obstacles on a moon terrain and rock simulation. Activities become more enhanced and challenge the students to solve real life engineering scenarios using robotics. Students will also use computing programs to teach their robot to move and react in order to solve challenges. Robotic platforms to include: LEGO Education and VEX.
Flight Camp
June 14-19
-WizKidz Science and Technology Center/ Dacula Location
CLOSED
Students are exposed to the fundamentals of Aerospace and flight as they experience flight simulations using real flight simulators. Instructed by certified pilots, students use real world aviation charts, learn about different flight charts- SimCharts, sectional, visual navigation charts (VNC), and more. Students learn how to read and create Flight Planners, learn Aerodynamics and Maneuvers, Simulate Flight with over 20 flight crafts and Control and operate a virtual Unmanned Aerial Vehicles (UAV's) and more.
At the end of each flight course, students have the option of taking a one on one flight with a certified pilot, where the pilot will actually give the student the opportunity to take the controls during flight. (This is optional)
Forensic Science Camp
Camp Code: FOR1
June 21-25
-WizKidz Science and Technology Center/ Dacula Location
CLOSED
Students delve into the world of forensic science and discover the techniques and technology used to solve crimes. Using hands-on activities, students will put their newly learned detective skills to work as they mock kid-friendly crimes.
Jr. Computing, Programming & Game Design
Camp Code: JRCOP
July 5-9
-WizKidz Science and Technology Center/ Dacula Location
-Georgia Institute of Technology July 12-16
CLOSED
Students are exposed to 3-D virtual programming with an introduction to ALICE.
Mad Science 101
Camp Code: MDS1
July 12-16
-WizKidz Science and Technology Center/ Dacula Location
CLOSED
From food-chains to fungi, your Jr. Scientists will take part in activities that involve Entomology, Chemistry, and Life Science. Students witness the wonder of plants as they create easy to maintain mini greenhouses, study carnivorous plants, create terrariums, raise butterflies, study invertebrates, and more.
