Amusement Park Science runs from 1 PM – 4 PM
How do they build those crazy rollercoasters and other amusement park rides? Join us and learn about the physics at play: friction, gravity, momentum, velocity, and other effects of force and motion. We’ll design, construct, and test loop-the-loops, marble catchers, Ferris wheels, swinging amusement rides, and more. Next, construct a wide range of Lego projects including: Creator, Star Wars, City, Friends, Technic and more. Learn engineering principles and build modular robots from your imagination. (Coding is not a focus in this course). Students will construct a Battle-Bot from our huge part collection, to participate in our robot tug-o’ war, Olympic competition, soccer match, and more! Students will take home a Hexbug robot and Lego project.
