Welcome to the world of Harry Potter as Hogwarts comes to Mineola. Students will travel a path similar to Potter’s by joining their favorite house using the Sorting Hat as an introduction, following with WebEx sessions and KidOYO challenges including classes about Potions, Wands, Spells and Charms, Quidditch, Herbology, Muggle Studies and more. The culminating final week will be the celebration of becoming an official wizard, right here in Mineola!

Come join us Under the Sea! This cluster is designed to allow students to dive deep into the ocean. We will explore the ocean habitat and learn about the mysterious creatures that inhabit this beautiful place. Students will become junior marine biologists as they participate in engaging and exploratory challenges that include science, math, reading, writing and art.

Welcome to 3D modeling and printing! In this KidOYO Pathway, students will learn how to use Tinkercad, a free 3D modeling software, to create 3D printed objects. Students will have the opportunity to design multiple creations and 3D print objects that will be shipped to their homes throughout this enrichment experience. Explore the world of 3D printing.

What is your favorite animal? Could it be elephants, tigers, gorillas, pandas or polar bears? Many of our favorite animals on Earth today are at risk of becoming extinct! We can help save the animals and make the planet a better place. Let’s take a trip around the world to see how we can keep some of our favorite animals safe! Student’s in Mission Save the Animals will explore problems and create possibilities and solutions.

Let's take a creative journey together and discover more about our magnificent selves. In this cluster we will explore what it feels like to have an “art studio habit of mind”. What does being creative mean to you? This class can help you grow in many parts of your creative life by bringing awareness to your thoughts, understanding your emotions, and making decisions that fit your true self. This playful process will help create healthy life long habits. The fun is working with color, words and images, while being free to explore and not be perfect. It’s all just for you!!

Do you love ice cream and other desserts? If so, then this is the cluster for you! Come enjoy with other passionate dessert fans as we explore the science behind how ice cream is made (and even make your own ice cream at home!). We will research and create our very own ice cream shop out of at home materials and market our shops for other dessert enthusiasts. Along this delicious journey, you will explore a dessert of your choice to research and share with the group. We will culminate this cluster with a sweet celebration!
