Snapology
Snapology’s STEAM programs teach through building. Using LEGO® bricks, kids have fun while they learn. Snapology classes are designed based on research that shows children’s best learning experiences come from actively designing, creating, interacting, and inventing.
Dranesville will offer two Snapology sessions in the Fall of 2024.
Junior Engineers
Grades K-2
Cost: $160
Thursdays, 4:25 - 5:25 p.m., Sept. 19 - Nov. 7*
Your students will build fun and simple models using LEGOS. By playing with and manipulating the models, they experience pulleys, levers, gears, wheels and axles while exploring energy, buoyancy, and balance. Classes include free-building time to promote creativity. They will have an opportunity to learn basic engineering and mechanical ideas and practice early science skills.
Amusement Park Engineering
Grades 3-6
Cost: $160
Thursdays, 4:25 - 5:25 p.m., Sept. 19 - Nov. 7*
We bet your child loves going to amusement parks, but have they ever thought about the science that goes into building those rides and the people who are responsible for designing them? In Snapology’s Amusement Park Engineering class, students will become engineers of their own amusement park rides and will learn the core physics and engineering concepts used to make a ride thrilling!
