KINDERGARTEN AVIATION ADVENTURES STEM PROGRAM
At the Kindergarten level, the aviation and aerospace program introduces young learners to the wonders of flying and space exploration. Through engaging, story-driven lessons, children will explore basic concepts of flight, aircraft types, and simple aerospace principles. Each lesson incorporates hands-on activities designed to spark curiosity and imaginative thinking.
FIRST GRADE AVIATION ADVENTURES STEM PROGRAM
In First Grade, the aviation and aerospace curriculum expands to include more detailed exploration of aircraft and basic aerodynamics.
The program aims to foster a deeper understanding of how things fly and the role of technology in aviation, with hands-on activities to enhance learning and retention.
SECOND GRADE AVIATION ADVENTURES STEM PROGRAM
For Second Grade, the curriculum introduces students to more complex ideas about aviation and aerospace, including the role of weather in flying, basic navigation concepts, and deeper exploration into the design and mechanics of flying machines. The lessons are designed to be interactive and continue building on the excitement for aviation and aerospace sciences.
THIRD GRADE AVIATION ADVENTURES STEM PROGRAM
Third Grade focuses on deepening students’ understanding of the mechanics behind flight and aerospace, the history of aviation, and the exploration of advanced materials used in modern aircraft. The lessons aim to bridge practical experiences with theoretical knowledge through more complex projects and discussions.
FOURTH GRADE AVIATION ADVENTURES STEM PROGRAM
In Fourth Grade, the curriculum focuses on deeper scientific concepts related to aviation, including sound and light in aerospace, advanced navigation systems, and the environmental impact of aviation. These topics are explored through practical experiments and project-based learning to enhance understanding and engagement.
FOURTH GRADE AVIATION ADVENTURES STEM PROGRAM
The Fifth Grade curriculum encourages students to apply their accumulated knowledge in aviation and aerospace through advanced project-based activities. We focuse on rocketry, the physics of flight at high altitudes, and the integration of technology in modern aviation. It aims to deepen critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
