SUMMARY:Curious Minds Workshop
DESCRIPTION:All children are born curious; it’s our job to help them stay that way. Let us help you give your student something much better than a Saturday on the couch scrolling. \nJoin us Saturday Nov 15th from 9 AM to 2 PM on the beautiful campus of Talcott Mountain Academy\, where curious minds ages 7–11 can explore hands-on STEM adventures in aerodynamics\, engineering\, ecosystems\, and stop-motion animation with our expert educators. \nWhile your child dives into discovery\, parents have the option to attend a special seminar with Dr. Kenneth Wright\, Dean of the Academy\, on “Perfectionism in High-Ability Kids” learning how to nurture healthy striving without toxic self-expectations. \nREGISTER TODAY \nSpaces are limited — register today and keep curiosity alive! \n  \n\nBrain Body Bootcamp \nStudents will strengthen focus\, coordination\, and problem-solving through structured movement and cognitive challenges\, exploring how physical activity supports learning and building teamwork. Ages 7-9. Teacher: Sean Conlin \nEngineering with Simple Machines \nStudents will explore levers\, pulleys\, gears\, and inclined planes through hands-on building and challenge activities. They’ll discover how simple machines help us solve some of engineering’s biggest problems. Ages 7-9. Teacher: Mike Moynihan \nStop Animation \nStudents will learn basic animation principles by designing characters\, building with clay\, and creating a short stop-motion film. Ages 7-9. Teacher: Katie Larsen \nEngineering Aerodynamics \nStudents will investigate flight by testing how design affects lift\, drag\, and thrust using paper airplanes\, gliders\, and exploring small rockets. Ages 9-11. Teacher: Hannah Marye \nNature Journaling \nStudents will practice scientific observation and documentation\, recording data on local plants and animals through guided journaling and the combination of science and art. Ages 9-11. Teacher: Brigette Zacharczenko \nREGISTRATION STARTS HERE
