In this Challenge Island course, we’ll visit Disaster
Island USA, where we will take you on a thrilling adventure through some of the
most famous American disasters in history! You and your
tribemates will work together to overcome epic STEAM challenges using only the
materials in your treasure chest and the power of your imagination. Here's the
locations and topics we plan to visit each week:
·
Week 1: Tribal Spirit Rally at the Boston
Molasses Disaster

Week 2: San Francisco Earthquake

Week 3: Hurricane (Katrina) Harbor
Challenge Island is an award-winning STEAM (science, technology, engineering, arts, math) enrichment
program where kids solve fun, hands-on “challenges” which teach them about
STEAM fundamentals and crosscurricular topics, plus important success skills like
creativity, critical thinking, problem solving and much more. Students work together in small
"STEAM Teams" to solve each week's challenges, giving them an opportunity
to grow their teamwork and social skills as well. We look forward to seeing you on Challenge
Island!
