    MESSY MINIS ( 1 -2 YEARS OLD)

    100%

    by Messy Art Lab

    San Francisco, CA

    Welcome to Messy Art Lab’s MESSY MINIS! Each week, little artists will embark on a creative adventure, freely exploring a variety of engaging stations at their own pace. From handmade play dough to colorful sensory bins and open-ended art stations, this is a space for children to follow their curiosity, experiment with materials, and engage in hands-on discovery. Messy play encouraged—squish, splash, mix, and create! A Child-Led Experience * Follow your child's lead—step back, observe, and let them take the reins! There is no "right" way to explore, only endless possibilities. The focus is on the process, not the final product. *Parents, if a nanny or grandparent will be accompanying your child, please take a moment to share the Messy Art Lab approach. Class Guidelines * Dress for mess—comfortable clothes you don’t mind getting a little (or a lot!) messy. *One adult per child to ensure a relaxed and spacious environment. What This Experience Offers Through sensory-rich, child-led exploration, your little one will naturally develop: *Creativity & Imagination * Fine & Gross Motor Skills * Language & Social Skills *Problem-Solving & Cognitive Growth Our Free-Flowing Exploration Schedule *Welcome Time! – Settle in and get ready to explore! *Discovery Time!– Move freely between stations—play, create, and investigate at your own pace. *Tidy-Up Time! – A gentle transition as we care for our creative space. * Bubbles & Boogie– Dance, pop bubbles, and enjoy rhythmic fun together. Please note, this class does not include a main activity but each week, we will aim to introduce a recipe station.

    Gr 5-6 Session 2: Geometry Geniuses

    by The Math Workshop

    Cary, NC

    Get ready to unfold the world of shapes! This dynamic Geometry Math Workshop Session is designed for 5th and 6th graders to go beyond identifying shapes and dive into the fascinating properties and relationships within geometry. Through engaging activities, creative constructions, and real-world applications, we’ll transform into true geometry explorers! Get ready to embark on a geometry adventure where you’ll explore, create, and discover the beauty and power of shapes! What We’ll Explore: Shape Detectives: We’ll begin by sharpening our shape-detecting skills! We’ll classify polygons based on their attributes (sides, vertices, edges, angles), explore the relationships between different quadrilaterals, and even create our own shape classification systems. Get ready to think like a mathematician and justify your reasoning! Angle Adventures: Prepare to become angle experts! We’ll learn to measure angles with precision, explore different types of angles (acute, obtuse, right, straight), and discover the relationships between angles, such as complementary and supplementary angles. We’ll even use our angle knowledge to solve puzzles and create geometric art. 3D Shape Construction: Let’s build beyond the flat surface! We’ll investigate three-dimensional shapes, identify their faces, edges, and vertices, and learn about nets. We’ll use hands-on materials to construct our own 3D models using toothpicks and clay and explore concepts like surface area and volume in an intuitive way. Geometry in the Real World: Geometry isn’t just confined to the classroom! We’ll discover how geometry is used in architecture, design, art, and even nature. From identifying shapes in buildings to understanding the geometry of a spiderweb, we’ll see how geometry plays a vital role in the world around us. Coordinate Plane Creations: We will learn how to use the coordinate plane. We’ll learn how points are located and how to plot them. We will use these skills to create geometric shapes and designs.
