Challenge Island - VIRTUAL Home Island Career Adventure FREE CLASS - Roller Coaster Beach (single class) - Thu 6/18 4pm EDT




This class is being offered FREE to the community, to provide a fun activity for your kids and give you an opportunity to try out Challenge Island's virtual programs!  If you haven't been to Roller Coaster Beach before, please join us!  


This virtual class is an enrichment opportunity for students to grow their skills and knowledge in critical thinking, problem-solving and STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, math) fundamentals!  This session is part of our Career Adventure series, where kids can get a taste of some of the world’s most exciting jobs, and work to solve STEAM challenges related to those careers!  In this session, we will learn about the first roller coasters at Coney Island, and students will use the powers of potential energy & gravity to create their own coasters at home!

 

Upon registration, students will be sent a Zoom meeting link, and also a “scavenger hunt” list of materials that they should have handy, in order to build or solve the challenge presented in the class. (These will be items that should be mostly available around home, and substitutions will be more than fine, if you don’t have all the items.)  In the class, we will teach about the career and its connection to STEAM concepts at an age-appropriate level, then have the students work on the challenges and present their results to the other participants.  Our classes emphasize learning, connecting with other students, and positive reinforcement to help students make the most of this home-based experience!

 

We look forward to seeing you on Challenge Island!
