Discovery Clubs
​​​Daily, 3:35pm to 4:35pm
​
Discovery Clubs will nurture your child's natural curiosity through STEM-
based activities. We'll use a variety of materials, challenges, and guiding
questions to learn about the world around us!
​
Mondays: Fun Lab
"What happens when...?" Students will investigate guiding questions to
answer variations on the question "What happens when...?" They will
practice making predictions and learn how to test out if their guesses are right.
​
Tuesdays: Science Stories
Each week, this club starts with a story and leads to scientific discovery! Students will explore a new story each week and then experience the science within through amazing science experiments and hands-on projects. Students will develop their verbal and logic skills as they learn how to make predictions and share their own experiences.
​
Wednesdays: Sensory Fun
From making slime to musical scavenger hunts, students will put their senses to work in this hands-on experiential club. Each week will feature new materials to play with!
​
Thursdays: Little Builders
Students will use a variety of building materials to think like scientists as they build models and experiment and test ideas to answer questions. Students will get the chance to experiment with the materials provided before putting their problem-solving and collaboration skills to work through a new mini-challenge each week.
​
Fridays: Nature Club
Come explore the plants and animals of Chicago and beyond in this hands-on exploration. We'll make nature art with real leaves, plant seeds, discover animals and insects in the neighborhood.
