SUMMARY:STEM Fair Workshop Series Alachua
DESCRIPTION:STEM Fair Workshop Series\nAges 7–14 | 2 Hours Each | 8 Tuesdays This FallLimited Spots Available \nCurious minds\, unite!Join us this fall for a 8-part STEM Fair Workshop Series where students dive into hands-on science and engineering challenges inspired by real-world problems. Each 2-hour session introduces a new mini STEM Fair-style project using either the Engineering Design Process or the Scientific Method. \nFrom coding randomness to designing wind-powered machines\, building sock-launching catapults to sewing light-up bookmarks—each workshop blends critical thinking\, creativity\, and collaboration in a fun and engaging environment. Whether your child is preparing for a STEM Fair or just loves to tinker and explore\, this series will inspire\, educate\, and ignite their inner innovator. \n\nWorkshop Lineup:\n1. Code vs. Chance – Is Your Computer Really Random? September 9th 2025Use coding and data analysis to test the randomness of digital dice vs. real ones! Apply the Scientific Method\, form hypotheses\, and analyze results using a Micro:bit. \n2. Wind Power Workshop – Design\, Build\, and Power Up! September 16th 2025Harness renewable energy by building a wind-powered lift. Work through the full Engineering Design Process while exploring the science of wind power. \n3. Sock Launcher Catapult Challenge – Aim\, Launch\, Score! September 23rd 2025Engineer a working catapult to launch socks into a laundry hamper! Learn force\, motion\, and trajectory while building and testing your design. \n4. Conductivity Detectives – Build & Test Your Own Conductivity Device September 30th 2025Design a device that tests which materials conduct electricity. Combine engineering and scientific thinking to build\, experiment\, and draw conclusions. \n5. Weather Watchers – Can Clouds Help Us Predict the Weather? October 7th 2025Step into the role of a junior meteorologist! Observe clouds\, form weather predictions\, and explore atmospheric science through real-world simulations. \n6. Sew Creative Circuits – Stitch\, Spark\, and Shine! October 14th 2025Create a light-up fabric bookmark with LEDs and conductive thread. Discover how wearable tech works through hands-on circuit building and design. \n7. Paper Creative Circuits – Light Up Your Ideas! October 21st 2025Design and build glowing greeting cards using simple and parallel circuits. Explore electricity through art and engineering in this creative challenge. \n8. Candy Science – Test\, Melt\, Bubble\, Burst!Explore the chemistry of candy as students use the Scientific Method to test how heat\, water\, and other variables affect melting\, dissolving\, and sugar reactions in their favorite treats. \n\n🧠 What Kids Will Gain:\n\n\nReal-world application of the Engineering Design Process & Scientific Method \n\n\nExposure to coding\, electronics\, renewable energy\, physics\, and more \n\n\nBoosted confidence in presentation\, teamwork\, and critical thinking \n\n\nA finished mini STEM project in every workshop—perfect STEM Fair practice! \n\n\n\nWorkshop Series Details: \n\n\nDuration: 2 hours \n\n\nDate: Tuesday September 9th – October 28th 2025 10 am – 12 pm \n\n\nLocation: The Old School House\, 23760 NW 187th Ave\, High Springs\, FL 32643 \n\n\nCost: $250.00 for all 8 workshops (with the bundle you get 1 free workshop)
