STEM PROGRAM

EYC’s STEM curriculum integrates two dynamic programs that nurture critical thinking, creativity, and technical skills: Scratch Programming and LEGO Robotics.

The Scratch curriculum introduces students to coding fundamentals through block-based programming, allowing them to create animations, games, and interactive projects. As they progress, students develop increasingly complex games featuring timers, randomness, and scoring systems, which promote creativity and problem-solving.

The LEGO Robotics curriculum emphasizes hands-on learning with LEGO Spike Prime kits. Students explore coding and engineering principles by constructing robotic arms, cars, and cranes.

Together, these programs foster critical and creative thinking, enhance coding proficiency, and cultivate collaborative skills, equipping students to tackle future STEM challenges.
