Staff is requesting to purchase the National Inventors Hall of Fame (https://www.invent.org) modules to support and enrich the 21 CARES Expanded Learning Prrogram TK-8 schools. CARES has been using these research based, hands-on, engaging, and problem based learning modules within the after school, intersession, and summer programs since 2017. The modules will be implemented one to two times a week at the 21 ( CARES 18 elementary and 3 middle school sites) and include; 7, Pod Pals and Zoom (TK-1), Lost Treasure and Robotic Pet Vet (2/3), Innovation Force and Champions (4/5), Fly Gliders and Wear It Out (6/8).

Based on credible research and directly informed by world-changing inventors, Camp Invention® provides a new, tested program each year. Their engaging, hands-on modules are designed to meet the needs of TK-8 students, helping develop the Innovation Mindset — a growth mindset that instills essential skills for any area of life.
