Core Steam Classes
STEAM Enrichment Classes for All Ages!
Snapology provides interactive, STEM / STEAM programs for children featuring technology and popular building toys such as LEGO® bricks and K’Nex®. Kids have so much fun in our programs, that they don’t realize just how much they are learning.
Common Core
At Snapology, we provide the perfect mixture of education and fun. Let’s face it…If it isn’t fun, your child won’t want to come back. In our STEM / STEAM programs, students are focused on their favorite topics, while we sneak in the educational concepts. All of the learning principles taught in our programs are mapped to Common Core Standards and many are mapped to Next Generation Science Standards.
Social Development
In Snapology programs, we promote an environment of collaboration & teamwork. We encourage negotiation and compromise through group decision making. In our programs, children improve cooperation and teamwork skills through social interaction. Social development is crucial to the development of every child. At Snapology, we make learning social skills an integral part of every program!
Presentation Skills
Learning to present to a group and gaining comfort with public speaking can be challenging for anyone. At Snapology, we’re proud to promote the development of these skills in a fun, easy manner. By presenting creative ideas about fun topics like Amusement Parks, Minecraft & Robotics, children in Snapology STEM / STEAM programs experience standing up in front of the class and speaking to a group in a very supportive environment.

Science topics are sprinkled throughout all of Snapology’s programs, but are more prevalent in our Snapology Scientists, Junior Scientists (All About Animals) and Minecraft programs. Students learn about astronomy, chemistry, physics, earth science, animal life cycles and minerals & ores among other topics in our programs. At Snapology, we make science fun!
Math & Technology
Isn’t it amazing how quickly kids pick up new technology? Students use laptops or iPads in many of our programs and are taught advanced technology topics in our Robotics and Animation classes. From coding to stop-motion, your child will love learning about the technical world around them while creating super-cool games and movies.
Special Needs
All Snapology programs are inclusive. We welcome children with extra needs in all Snapology programs. In addition, we offer CONNECTIONS to teach children social skills as well as Adaptive Play and Bricks & Buddies to encourage creativity and friendships. We welcome children of all capabilities in all programs.
Art
Art is baked right into all Snapology programs. Our goal is to inspire children to create and invent in every program. While we do offer an awesome Art History program, students in our programs experience art while building LEGO® & K’Nex models, creating mosaics and expressing themselves through code design and movie-making.
Competition
