It's out of this world!
At STARBASE-Battle Creek we enhance student learning through our unique style of hands-on STEAM based activities.
About
STARBASE offers 5th grade students an inspiring way to learn about science, technology, engineering, art and design, and math through an exciting, hands-on curriculum. Over the course of their 5-day, 25-hour experience, students will engage in motivational activities, which are best described as “hands-on, minds-on”. These activities include:
-
Creating 3D models using professional software
-
Programming robots to navigate an obstacle course
The STARBASE program is a Department of Defense community outreach program that has been a proven leader in introducing STEAM concepts for over 25 years. Carefully designed to meet common core educational standards, STARBASE encourages students to set goals, shows them how to achieve them, and uses positive role models to increase the confidence in their abilities.
