Stemtree Education Center

Stemtree Education Center

Stemtree is a K-12 education center that offers science, coding, robotics, electricity & electronics, and mathematics curricula. Stemtree offers non-repeating, multi-concept, award winning camps year-round. In fact, Stemtree camps have been voted the best summer camp in 2017, 2018, 2019, 2020, 2021, and 2022. Our programs are not structured in a traditional classroom setting. At Stemtree, we provide all students with one-on-one instruction. This customized learning style is considered a highly effective learning environment for students. It is important to note that children who attended our previous Stemtree camps or our after school program(s) will have different activities and continue learning new STEM concepts based on their prior work with us.

Build-Your-Own Electrical Circuit

Grades: K - 6th Ages: 6 - 12

Description

Children are fascinated by lights and sounds but know little about the circuits and electronics behind them. We make it easy for children to learn with practical hands-on activities and experiments. Not only are these activities fun, safe, and easy; they will introduce children to the field of engineering and inspire them to become tomorrow’s problem solvers. Students’ proficiency in electronics are assessed during the first session and based on the outcome of the assessment, are divided into groups of no more than two. Students who have attended previous Stemtree programs will have different activities and continue learning new concepts based on their prior work. It is important to note that children who attended our previous Stemtree camps or our after school program(s) will have different activities and continue learning new STEM concepts based on their prior work with us.

Robo-Fun

Grades: K - 6th Ages: 6 - 12

Description

All facets of our life are affected by engineering -- genetic, civil, software -- just to name a few. To be successful in the field of engineering, creative problem-solving abilities are a must. Robo-Fun uses the wonder and genius of robots to inspire students to learn engineering, apply their knowledge and skills of basic science, model construction, computer programming, and problem solving to explore STEM concepts. This program utilizes instructional time, assessments, and hands-on activities to reinforce key concepts and improve problem-solving skills while having fun. Robo-Fun is both a perfect introduction to the world of robotics for younger students and an opportunity to expand the knowledge base of older students. It is important to note that children who attended our previous Stemtree camps or our after school program(s) will have different activities and continue learning new STEM concepts based on their prior work with us.
