The Saint Louis Science Center’s STEMtastic Camp returned for another summer of bringing STEM learning to the St. Louis community. Now in its fourth year and thanks to the generous support of Boeing, STEMtastic Camp saw members of the Science Center’s Community Science department and teens from the Science Center’s YES Program visit schools in the Riverview Gardens and Ferguson-Florissant School Districts. There, they facilitated science projects, art explorations, and team building activities through the camp’s three weeks of programming.
Approximately 85 students participated in this year’s STEMtastic Camp. The campers took part in lessons and hands-on projects around coding, engineering design, astronomy, and aerospace engineering. Highlights included programming Sphero BOLT™ robots using a block coding language, building 10-foot-long marble rollercoasters, and designing habitable planets.
