Step into the past and discover the creative minds who changed the world! In this hands-on course, students will explore the lives, ideas, inventions, and challenges of inventors and innovators from different times and places. They’ll discover the problems these creative thinkers set out to solve, investigate how their ideas evolved, and uncover how their inventions changed everyday life. Students will then use their own creativity and problem-solving skills to develop solutions to real and imagined problems. Bring your curiosity, imagination, and persistence as you experience what it takes to think like an innovator.

About Your Extraordinary Saturday (YES)
For 1st – 5th Grade Students
A New Adventure Every Weekend
MITY's program for elementary students enables inquisitive, high achieving 1st - 5th grade students to continue learning outside of the traditional classroom. Courses are intentionally designed to inspire inquiry, activate imaginations, and engage eager learners in hands on discovery that is not possible within a regular classroom setting. While students are in class, parents are invited to listen to professional speakers on topics related to raising bright children, socialize with other parents, or visit a local coffee shop.
