This week, Basking Ridge is excited to be hosting five STEAM-powered classes: Camp Newspaper, Comic Creation, Engineering and Programming with Arduino, Investment Literacy & the Stock Market Game, and Youngster Right Brain Mix!
In Camp Newspaper, campers started by talking about different roles at a newspaper and creating their own “staff” bios!
Comic Creation campers started the day by learning how to tell a short story through sequential art by creating a storyline and started brainstorming for their own comics.
Our Stock Market campers started the week learning about companies versus brands in preparation for buying their stocks for the New York Stock Exchange-endorsed Stock Market Game!
The campers in Engineering and Programming with Arduino jumped right in to their first task of the week, which was to create an LED light using the Arduino engineering kits.
The country theme this week in Youngster Right Brain Mix is Mexico, so students started by learning about the geography of Mexico and what its flag looks like!
