Lego Engineering Summer Tech Camp

Elementary Engineering

Unlock Your Inner Engineer! Discover the building blocks of mechanical engineering through hands-on exploration. Using LEGO® Education and LEGO® Technic™ materials, students will investigate how pulleys, levers, gears, and wheels work together to power machines. Working in pairs, they will practice building techniques, test mechanical principles, and solve engineering challenges designed to spark creativity and problem-solving. This class encourages teamwork, experimentation, and applied learning as students explore how engineering concepts can be used to design and build their own unique creations.
