Be a Maker this summer! Come join us for this five session MAKER CAMP for TEENS where exciting, hands-on projects will enable participants to create and solve some design challenges. Presented in collaboration between the Autism Society of SE WI and Betty Brinn Children’s Museum, these classes will be tailored for individuals aged 11 – 18 on the Autism Spectrum.
We want to make this camp a success for participants and for everyone to have a good time. Adult assistance will be provided for every two participants, and the camp will be limited to 20 registered attendees so classes allow for opportunity to interact, form connections and get support if needed for the great projects being built. Participants must be able to attend to the tasks and may require some support. If your teen requires 1:1 assistance to participate and engage in the activities, this will need to be provided by the family for the entirety of participation.
What are we Doing? Please see our schedule in the Agenda, below! All camps run from 3:00 p.m. - 5:00 p.m. Please be sure to note the camp dates.
Camps will run for two hours. There will be a 30 minute “direct instruction” component in the activity with 90 minutes of exploration and application time with “brain breaks” given during each session. Each session will focus on a new and exciting project with the skills and critical thinking processes being used in a final, culminating project to design an exhibit.
The intended audience: Pre-Teen and Teen participants, aged 11-18 who are members of the Autism Society will be given preferential registration. Non-members may register after the camp registration has been open for two weeks.
Member Price: $85.00.
SELECT MEMBER for ticket type if you are a Member of the Autism Society SE WI.
Non-Member Price: $95.00.
