Building Valuable 21st Century Skills & Competencies Through STEM
At Kids DiscoveryWorks, we believe that education should prepare children for a world where success will require more flexibility, creativity, innovation and social intelligence than ever before.
The preschool and primary school years are critical times in a child's development. To truly engage children at this stage in their learning, education must encourage a child's natural curiosity and enthusiasm, and be enriched by exploration, discovery, problem-solving and creative thinking.
With the pressure to raise test scores, however, many schools have limited time to devote to hands-on activities. Kids DiscoveryWorks fills this gap. With a comprehensive curriculum of fun and engaging Science, Technology, Engineering and Math (STEM) holiday programs, camps and workshops, we are dedicated to inspiring a love of learning as we guide your child through exciting STEM adventures.
ENGAGING PROJECT-BASED CHILDREN’S ACTIVITIES THAT DISGUISE LEARNING AS PLAY
Through role-playing, experimentation, investigation, and open-ended discussion, our unique STEM curriculum and project-based activities build a bridge from your child’s interests to subjects like Math, Engineering and Science. Because STEM education emphasizes student exploration as opposed to rote learning, students are encouraged to actively engage with real-world problems and apply their learning to find creative solutions. In the process, they will:
Develop their powers of observation
.
Learn to plan ahead and to see mistakes as opportunities to learn
Learn to work both independently and collaboratively with peers
