Service Description
Class Topics: Cryptography and Secret Codes Instructor: Christine Lancaster Welcome to the world of secret messages! In this fun and interactive class, students will learn the basics of cryptography, the science of creating and solving secret codes. We'll dive into the history of secret codes, explore simple ciphers (codes that hide messages), and even create our own secret messages that only friends can decode. This class is a perfect introduction to cryptography, combining history, problem-solving, and hands-on fun! Students will love the mystery and excitement of secret codes, while learning valuable skills like pattern recognition, logical thinking, and teamwork. Whether they dream of being spies or just enjoy puzzles, this class will spark their imagination and curiosity about the world of cryptography! Around the world adventures Instructor: Lynn Gilbersten In this class we will explore a different country of the world each week. Students will locate and discuss geographic location, read stories or books related to or from the country we are learning, and make an art project or food that represents the culture of that country. Students will build a portfolio of the countries we learn about and take it home at the end of the semester.
