The program offers an inquiry-based approach to STEAM and robotics, taught exclusively by Dalton educators, utilizing a state-of-the-art Makerspace.
The Dalton Summer Program offers an engaging and dynamic environment for students to explore Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics (STEAM) through an inquiry-based approach. Campers, ranging from incoming kindergarteners to rising 8th graders, participate in hands-on projects designed to foster critical thinking and creativity. Activities include programming and problem-solving in robotics, exploring engineering concepts, and engaging with design and coding. Students utilize a state-of-the-art Makerspace equipped with laser cutters, 3D printers, and various tools to bring their ideas to life. The program emphasizes learning by doing, encouraging students to ask questions, test ideas, and refine their thinking. Through these experiences, participants develop intellectual independence, computational thinking skills, and a sense of responsibility, preparing them to confidently tackle real-world challenges.
A typical day involves rotating through workshops led by specialist teachers, building upon learned concepts to create increasingly sophisticated projects, and spending time outdoors in nearby parks for games and nature exploration.
This program is best for curious and creative students eager to dive into STEAM subjects and develop problem-solving skills through hands-on, project-based learning.
