Our Annual Pipeline Programs (APPs)

  • 4-H Projects

    Club members can submit 4-H projects of their choice to be entered into the 4-H Fair. Projects range from animals, to computer science and programming, public speaking, model making, and many more. See the full list of projects that can be submitted from the list

    Superior STEAM will also have a booth at the Lawrence County Fair. Visitors to the booth can learn more about the club and check out all of our APPs. Visitors will get to see science, technology, engineering, art, and mathematics (STEAM) first-hand through different activities each night related to that night's theme. 

  • FIRST Robotics

    FIRST Robotics is an international robotics competition that strives to teach technical and personal skills through the rigors of robotics competition.

    “I want to compete for the hearts and minds of kids with the excitement of the Super Bowl.”  - Dean Kamen, Inventor & FIRST® Robotics Founder

    Learn more about FIRST at firstinspires.org. Learn more about FIRST in Indiana here.

    Time for teams will be shared with those team members after the season starts.

  • STEAM Week

    The best way to know that you have learned something is to teach it to someone else. That is why our students will be creating and operating a week long camp for other students in our community. This will cover STEAM topics that the students have learned during their time in the club.

  • Think Like An Engineer

    Think Like an Engineer is a 24 week program that uses club-made and purchased kits to teach students 4-12yrs old about engineering concepts such as gravity, forces, programming, problem solving, and more. The program is led by older student members as well as club and community mentors

  • Osmo

    "Osmo puts the fun in building learning fundamentals through the magic of hands-on play, tangible pieces and digital fun!" Learn reading, math, and more through the interactive app and tablet. The Osmo program is loved by all ages, but this class is specially for kids entering Pre-K through 6th grade. 

    This program is thanks to the generous support of the Lawrence County Community Foundation. Our capstone team, CTF, wrote the grant and were awarded the largest grant in the community.

    Assessments will take place on the first night. Parents will receive automatic progress updates from the app. Please make sure to use the right email when registering.

  • LEGO Lessons

    Using LEGO Education's Spike software, students will follow tutorials to learn how to build and program different projects. For students 5-12yrs old. 

    Potential projects can be seen on LEGO Education's Website.

  • Mechatronics

    Our Mechatronics meetings (for students 12-18yrs old) take the foundations from LEGO Lessons and translates them to real-world applications in metal fabrication, electronics, programming, 3D printing, and communications. Youth wanting to participate do not have to have any prior experience or knowledge from LEGO Lessons or any related workshop(s). 

    Today, mechatronics degrees are available from several colleges and universities.

  • Full STEAM Ahead for Literacy

    New APP payed for with grant from Lawrence County Community Foundation.
