Young Engineers believes and reinforces education through play. Our Big Builders unique enrichment program introduces pre-school children to scientific concepts through hands-on experiential learning. Thus, these activities will gradually challenge participants to advance their fine and gross motor skills. Students get a set specially designed for the Big Builders program and construct 3D models using flexible parts.  This enrichment program will expose our builders to engineering terminology. Students will be familiar with simple concepts such as the animal kingdom, common science, and everyday surroundings. In addition, playing with their co-builders will advance their interpersonal skills, socio-linguistic, and boost self-esteem about his/her ability to discover and invent. We hope that establishing this connection between knowledge and fun at such a young age will set our participants up for a lifetime of learning and creating.

Overview of Big Builders curriculum

Big Builders' lessons include discussions about shapes, spatial recognition, and moveable versus immovable parts. Our instructors use proper Math and Science terminologies to familiarize students with these professional terms.  Builders learn simple addition and subtraction through building their models. Students will also discover simple principles of fractions as they learn the idea of parts of a whole. It likewise introduces laws of Physics on a gradual level through demonstrations of centrifugal force, gravity, torque, stability, friction, momentum, mechanical energy, balance, compaction, and drive.  In addition, many of our Big Builder models have nature/animal themes. Students will learn basic concepts of biology. We believe that lessons are better conceptualized and inculcated easily through hands-on experiential learning. That is why our Big Builders' graduates would have an advanced understanding of everyday mathematical and scientific concepts.

The RoboBricks enrichment program teaches software engineering, technology, entrepreneurship and Math (STEM). During each lesson, students build a robot that performs various tasks. Once they finish building the robots, the students are given the opportunity to develop and create computer algorithms and learn how to implement them on the WeDo coding system. Most computer programs and software are in English. We teach our students to use the correct English terms, aiding them in the development of their technical language for the field.

At the end of the semester, students design a machine and a code and present their project to potential investors or the panel of judges (usually parents). This program introduces the participants to many important professional skills that they will later be able to employ in their future careers.
