Brains and Motion Education (BAM!) Summer Camp at NYU offers a dynamic blend of STEM activities, artistic endeavors, and sports for middle schoolers. Campers engage in hands-on, project-based learning, exploring topics such as coding, AI, machine learning, creative writing, animation, and game design. Through activities like LEGO robotics, Strawbees Micro:bit, and Game Design Lab with Minecraft & CodeCombat, students develop critical thinking, problem-solving, and collaboration skills. The camp emphasizes a balance between classroom learning and physical activity, with daily guided movement, outdoor exploration, and group games designed to promote creativity, teamwork, and overall well-being. The curriculum is designed to foster academic, creative, social, and emotional growth, instilling confidence and resilience. Campers are encouraged to try new things, learn from mistakes, and celebrate their individuality in a supportive and inclusive environment.
A typical day includes engaging, hands-on STEM projects in the morning, followed by interactive subject-based games, guided movement, and outdoor activities in the afternoon to promote teamwork and physical well-being.
This camp is ideal for middle school students who thrive on variety and are eager to explore new interests in STEM, arts, and sports through hands-on projects and collaborative challenges.
