At this year’s summer camp, children ages 3 – 6 will get a daily dose of Science, Technology, Engineering, Art, and Math (STEAM) through fascinating hands-on activities. STEAM allows an integration of knowledge across disciplines, encouraging students to think in a more connected and holistic way. This year’s camp sessions will run from 6th July until 14th August.
Why STEAM?
- STEAM learning builds critical thinking skills and sense of curiosity
- STEAM activities strengthen problem solving skills
- STEAM makes math and science fun
- STEAM education helps to bridge the ethnic and gender gaps sometimes found in math and science fields
- STEAM allows students to be active, engaged, and take initiative in their own learning
繼去年夏令營，ICMS今個夏天將繼續以STEAM為主題，讓3至6歲的學生根據「讓我自己做」的蒙特梭利學習理念，參與各種有趣的學習活動，以多角度親身認識、學習、探索、理解和應用至每組活動的五個範疇：科學、科技、工程、藝術和數學。
STEAM為近年跨學科領域的教學方式。學生除了學習各學科的基本概念，同時亦能把不同領域的知識結合起來，達到鼓勵學生多角度思考和培養邏輯思維能力。
為何選擇STEAM?
- 培養小朋友從小對數學、科學範疇的興趣
- 生動有趣的教學模式
- 鼓勵學生積極投入課堂、自主學習
- 培養批判性思考能力、啟發好奇心加強解難能力
