The drones are here! Let the battles begin. In this hands-on, interactive class, you will learn how to safely fly drone robots. Working in teams, you will be able to code your drone to compete in missions that will prepare you for the ultimate team challenge at the end of the week. Students will work in pairs or teams for most of the program. Week Lesson/Activity 1 Learn basic flight safety and takeoff. Create student accounts, explore drone safety rules, and perform a first flight (stable hover and safe landing). 2 Understand flight physics and manual steering. Explore how propellers affect movement, navigate obstacle courses using manual controls, and begin basic speed trials. 3 Introduction to drone programming. Complete the basic sprint/laps challenge, link drones to computers, and begin coding autonomous shapes. 4 Program elevation changes. Finish automated shape-drawing flight paths and code vertical movement controls. 5 Master hurdle races and multi-axis movement. Compete in the automated hurdle race and start programming complex movements along multiple axes simultaneously. 6 Execute automated geometric patterns. Finalize multi-axis programming and utilize the Move block to guide the drone through vertical octagons. 7 Apply advanced manual flight mechanics. Practice coordinated rotation and pitch exercises, then compete in a manual slalom race. 8 Integrate hardware sensors. Read physical sensor telemetry within RoboLink and begin programming automated hover adjustments. 9 Program logic and perform tricks. Apply conditional logic (if/then statements) for automated altitude control and perform manual aerial flips. 10 Synthesize skills for the final showcase. Design a final comprehensive obstacle course, complete the ultimate trial, and execute automated drone choreography.

In this LEGO Engineering class, students will use LEGO technic kits to build working machines and motorize them. Curriculum is written by an engineer and teaches the TEKS for both math and science.

Young investigators step into the role of crime scene scientists to solve an exciting mystery. Through hands-on activities like fingerprinting, chromatography, evidence analysis, and observation challenges to, students build logical reasoning while applying the scientific method. Each lesson adds new clues that lead to a collaborative “whodunit” finale, where teams use their skills to crack the case with confidence Week Lesson Title Lesson Description & Objectives 1 Observation Power Students investigate a staged crime scene and learn how detectives use observation and memory skills to gather evidence. 2 Fingerprint Science Students create fingerprint cards and learn how forensic scientists classify fingerprint patterns. 3 Lifting Prints Students dust and lift fingerprints from simulated evidence and learn how investigators recover hidden prints. 4 Hair & Fiber Analysis Students compare mystery fibers to fabric samples and learn how trace evidence connects suspects to a crime scene. 5 Footprints & Impressions Students create shoe impressions and learn how investigators use footprints to estimate height and identify suspects. 6 Mystery Powders Students test mystery powders and learn how forensic chemists identify unknown substances safely. 7 Chromatography & Ink Analysis Students separate ink pigments and learn how chromatography helps investigators identify writing tools. 8 Handwriting & Document Analysis Students reveal hidden messages using invisible ink and compare handwriting samples to learn how forensic scientists analyze chemical and written evidence. 9 Witness Interviews & Memory Students analyze witness statements and learn how eyewitness memory can be unreliable. 10 Building the Timeline Students organize evidence into a timeline and learn how detectives reconstruct events chronologically.

Students become architects and builders as they explore columns, arches, towers, bridges, and landmarks from different places and time periods. Using 3D printing pens, students create flat structural pieces and connect them to form freestanding models. Along the way, they strengthen fine motor skills, spatial reasoning, creativity, and an understanding of how shapes work together to make structures stable. Week Lesson Title Lesson Description & Objectives 1 3Doodler Building Challenge Students practice tracing lines, filling shapes, and connecting flat pieces with a 3D printing pen and learn how strong edges, reinforced corners, and wide bases help structures stand. 2 Ancient Columns Students trace and assemble columns and learn how columns support buildings and how Doric, Ionic, and Corinthian styles use different details. 3 Roman Archways Students create arches from curved stencils and rectangular supports and learn how arches are used in doorways, bridges, and aqueducts. 4 Aqueduct Bridge Students connect repeated arch pieces to build a short aqueduct or bridge and learn how repetition and evenly spaced supports strengthen a structure. 5 Pyramid Builders Students trace triangular panels and connect them to create a pyramid and learn how triangular faces and a wide base help make stable structures. 6 Castle Construction Students assemble a castle facade or small tower using rectangles, battlements, and arch pieces and learn how walls, towers, gates, and repeated shapes define castle architecture. 7 Pagoda Tower Students stack simple square frames and roof pieces to create a tiered pagoda-inspired tower and learn how repeated levels create height, balance, and rhythm. 8 Geometric Dome Students connect a small set of triangles to create a partial dome and learn how repeated geometric pieces can form a larger three-dimensional shape. 9 World Landmark Mash-up Students combine familiar stencils to design an original landmark featuring at least two architectural elements and learn how architects adapt and combine ideas to make new structures. 10 Design Your Own Landmark Students design and build an original freestanding landmark and learn how architects use purpose, shape, balance, and decorative details to develop a complete structure.
