Student-Teacher Ratio 8:1
To make a country, one must take a country; revolution inspires innovation for war, government & the people.
Engineering: Copy a John Hancock with Thomas Jefferson's polygraph, hide secret messages in a secret compartment, and manufacture a trick guillotine.
ReCreation: Send a secret message via hard boiled egg, shoot ear plugs with your colonial musket, create your own powder wig to wear to Parliament.
Tech Lab: Stage a revolution with Ozobots, design a weapon with Tinkering Labs Catalyst Kits, and repurpose enemy technology to use for your side.
Art Exploration: Build a miniature French garden fit for a king, learn calligraphy and manufacture a candelabra.
About Maker Camp
Maker Camp, sponsored by MAKE magazine, is a summer camp with a focus on using science, technology, engineering, art and math (STEAM) to create, build, and discover. Golden Gate Learning Center integrates history & culture to bring those projects to life. Every day Maker Campers learn about Makers of the past while becoming the Makers of the future. Campers (entering K-6th grade) rotate by age group every day to all four Maker Camp components: Engineering, Tech Lab, Art Exploration & ReCreation. Whether it's with wires, gears or glue, we help them Make connections they didn't know existed. We keep a comfortable 8:1 camper-to-staff ratio so these makers have all the help they need to succeed.
