Tuesday Oct 13th, 2020 | 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm

Supplement your homeschool curriculum with hands-on, interactive STEAM experiences you can’t find anywhere else! Register your child for CDM’s STEAM Club for Homeschool! STEAM Club meets Tuesdays from 1-3 p.m. and is designed specifically for 1st through 8th graders. Lessons change monthly and provide experiences that make science, technology, engineering, art, and math come alive for kids.

CDM is taking precautions to keep your child safe including limiting class capacity to 10 students, requiring masks or face coverings, social distancing, and health screenings.

Session 1 begins Sept. 1 and meets through Nov. 17. Session 2 begins Jan. 5 and meets through April 27. Member, sibling, and yearlong registration discounts are available. Visit cdmfun.org/home-school-steam-club for more information or to register today!


SESSION 1

Grades 1-2 | Invasive Species 
Invasive species can be devastating to native flora and fauna. Students will learn about the problems associated with invasive species in the United States, as well as cane toads in Australia. Students will also design and test a humane trap to catch and remove cane toads.

Grades 3-5 | Marvelous Machines
Students will learn to think like industrial engineers as they study a potato chip factory assembly line and learn about the simple machines that are used. They will put their knowledge to the test when they put several machines together to create an assembly line subsystem.

Grades 6-8 | Outbreak Alert
Students will become biomedical engineers as they learn about viruses and how they spread. They will design, engineer and test an antiviral to stop the entry of the newly discovered virus into a model cell.
