What is the Kids Love Tech in School Workshop?

Based on the Ontario Science and Technology Curriculum, Kids Love Tech workshops bring your class an opportunity to experiment, build and play with projects reinforcing scientific concepts that are being taught in class.
Students build projects that simulate devices from the world around them such as fans, cranes and cars, to help them make the connection between the scientific concept and real life, their community, and the world.
Each child has the opportunity to experiment with real world engineering materials including circuits, motors and gears.



Workshop List

SK-Grade 1: Build a Fire Truck
While building a fire truck, the students explore mechanisms, simple machines and movement. They use wood, screws, axles, wheels and electronic circuits.

Grades 3-4: Build a Crane!
Experiment with forces, motors, pulleys and gears while building a crane to lift a variety of loads.
Curriculum connection: Forces and Movement (3), Pulleys and Gears (4)

Grades 3-4: Fun Fans and Cars
