Science Akadémeia, the Atlanta Preschool of Science

Science Akadémeia, the Atlanta Preschool of Science Our curriculum at Science Akadémeia follows these proven guidelines: 1.

A science preschool based on a research-based curriculum utilizing the engineering design process with a specific framework to guide its development to ensure high-quality science technology engineering and math (STEM) education in early childhood. Developmentally Appropriate: provide children with books, videos, materials, and tasks that are appropriate for their cognitive and language developmen

t. 2. Culturally Responsive: designed to reflect diversity of gender, ethnic background, and physical abilities while allowing access and emphasizing children’s own culture. 3. Application of the Engineering Design Process: engage children in an open-ended, multiple solutions problem-solving task which requires them to follow the engineering design process (i.e., defining the problem, brainstorming, researching, creating, testing, improving, and communicating). 4. Integrity of the Academic Content: are content-accurate, aligned with the relevant content standards, and foundational skills of Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math as articulated in Pre-K standards and GELDS framework. 5. Quality of Technology Integration: are hands-on in nature and require children to use variety of tools to solve each problem (e.g., scissors, scales, computers, robots, rulers, hand lenses). 6. Connections to Non-STEM Disciplines: help children connect STEM knowledge and skills with standards from early literacy, art, social emotional, and physical education. 7. Real World Connections and STEM Careers: driven by a real world phenomena, which are familiar and relevant to the children’s life inside and out of the classroom. When applicable, quality STEM learning experiences introduce different STEM careers and help children understand the roles of people who work in STEM disciplines. 8. Nature of Assessment:units include formative and summative authentic embedded assessments. The variety of activities allows children to demonstrate their understanding in different ways and allows teachers to record children’s mastery of learning outcomes.

Today marked the final day of another unforgettable summer at Science Akadémeia!

Over the past several weeks, our campers explored chemistry, robotics, coding, wildlife, inventions, space, health and medicine, art, engineering, electricity, oceans, weather, artificial intelligence, and technology. They experimented, designed, built, created, solved problems, made new friends, and discovered just how exciting STEM learning can be.

Our final week focused on AI and technology, giving campers opportunities to explore coding, robotics, problem-solving, and responsible technology use. It was the perfect way to conclude a summer filled with curiosity, creativity, and hands-on discovery.

We are incredibly grateful to our dedicated teachers and summer camp counselors for bringing enthusiasm, patience, care, and energy to the program each day. We also thank our families for trusting us with their children and allowing us to be part of their summer memories.

To our campers: keep asking questions, exploring new ideas, creating boldly, and believing in your ability to solve problems. We will miss your laughter, excitement, and bright smiles!

Thank you for an amazing summer. At Science Akadémeia, every day is a STEM adventure!

Water Week at Science Akadémeia was full of curiosity, discovery, and joy!

Our campers explored Earth, oceans, weather, and water through hands-on science and outdoor fun. They built Earth layer models, created ocean habitat dioramas, explored the water cycle, and conducted experiments with surface tension, density, capillary action, bubbles, oil and water, and sink-or-float activities.

They also built water molecule models, learned about hydrophobic and hydrophilic materials, and discovered how soap changes water to create bubbles. A special thank you to the Johns Creek Environmental Campus for teaching our students about water sustainability and conservation.

And of course, the happiest day of the week was Water Day! The laughter, splashing, movement, and joy made it unforgettable.

Engineering & Electricity Week at Science Akadémeia!

This week, our campers became young engineers as they explored building, motion, simple machines, circuits, electricity, creativity, and problem-solving.

Using LEGO bricks, LEGO BricQ, K’NEX, Bridge Builder kits, magnetic train tracks, Snap Circuits, Makey Makey, and other hands-on STEM materials, our students built bridges, towers, LEGO cities, train tracks, tree houses, balloon race cars, chain reactions, and simple circuits.

The highlight of the week was our Makey Makey guitar activity, where campers created working guitars and discovered how touch, conductivity, electricity, and technology can come together to make music.

Our campers also explored motion through balloon race cars, built simple circuits with Snap Circuits, and practiced the Engineering Design Process: Ask, Imagine, Plan, Create, Test, and Improve.

We also enjoyed a special Snapology visit, where our younger campers explored the Jr. Builders Program and our older campers built with LEGO BricQ materials.

And of course, the ongoing World Cup frenzy made its way to the playground, where students organized their own soccer games, practiced teamwork, and brought their excitement for the game into outdoor play.

What a wonderful week of building, testing, creating, and thinking like engineers!

Engineering Meets Electricity. Creativity Meets Innovation.

Art Meets Science Week at Science Akadémeia!
This week, our students explored the amazing world of sea turtles and endangered species through science, art, storytelling, engineering, and conservation.
Our young scientists and artists learned about sea turtle habitats, life cycles, nesting, hatchlings, and the importance of protecting ocean life. They built a large paper mâché sea turtle model, created beautiful sea turtle art, designed habitat dioramas, made sea turtle hats, and learned how people can help protect endangered animals.
One of the highlights of the week was watching our students write and perform their own play about sea turtle conservation, using their voices to share an important message about caring for our planet.
We ended the week with a special visit from Center for Puppetry Arts, where students enjoyed a reading of Naked Mole Rat Gets Dressed by Mo Willems and created their own mole rat puppets.
At Science Akadémeia, learning is hands-on, creative, meaningful, and connected to the world around us.
Art Meets Science. Science Meets Conservation.

During Art Meets Science Week, our students explored the beauty and importance of endangered species through the study of sea turtles

After learning about sea turtle habitats, life cycles, nesting, hatchlings, ocean conservation, and the challenges endangered animals face, our young artists used their creativity to bring these beautiful sea turtles to life through drawing.

At Science Akadémeia, we believe art is a powerful way for children to express what they are learning in science. These drawings are more than beautiful artwork , they reflect curiosity, observation, compassion, and a growing understanding that we all have a role to play in protecting our planet.

Create. Learn. Protect.
