Overview
Starting September 26th, TinkRworks will offer after school programs that provide children with exceptional hands-on, STEAM-powered projects that: • Foster a love of creating • Enhance problem-solving capabilities • Reinforce and expand on concepts and ideas taught in school • Provide delight and inspire curiosity • Encourage self-expression
Approach
Children can be enrolled in one of three tracks (see reverse side) where they will be immersed in projects with defined functional and aesthetic objectives. Using combinations of 21st century skills (e.g., coding, 3D-printing, electronics) and traditional skills (e.g. woodworking, painting) they will achieve beautiful results.
