Technology Course
From the world of Lucas and Alyci this course gives students the opportunity to join an adventure with Lucas and his friends while learning Science, Math, and Technology. In this educational course each student will embark on a journey to try and collect their second of three PowerShard Stones by completing each page, known as a CI (pronounced Ky) Challenge. Each challenge takes students through activities connecting them with simple machines, tools, decision-making, problem-solving, and robotic adaptations. In this world of inventions and new designs students travel the globe to gather the team and find their next PowerShard. PowerShard are stones used to energize all the coolest gadgets and creations.
Lucas and his team are on a mission to collect this PowerShard stone by completing each mission level and earning all 4 technology badges. Students joining the ALYCI Kids Club will help by completing each of the 4 technology modules including the Beginner, Intermediate, Advanced, and Genius levels.
Completion of all 10 CI (pronounced Ky) Challenges earn kid’s club members technology badges for all 4 levels en route to becoming an ALYCI Kids Club Master.
The objective of the ALYCI Kids Club educational courses is to contribute to the personal development of children. In addition, to support, enhance, and even introduce concepts being taught in your local schools.
The ALYCI Kids Club Technology Course is for kids ages 5 to 8 years old and is based on the North Carolina Standard Course of Study.
There are several buying options available for the ALYCI Kids Club Technology Course, as follows:
The Technology Beginner module briefly covers the first stage of tek topics prior to giving students challenging academic tasks. Lucas and each of the ALYCI team members tackle separate problems that students will help them solve. The beginner module gets students started by taking a look at various simple machines and finishing up the adventure from the previous activity to find a way to charge ALYCI from Mars. Here we focus on problem-solving and decision making, as well as kid’s critical thinking and special awareness. In this module, we introduce mammals, plants, and various animal behaviors. Younger students may need parent or teacher guidance and support. Completion of all 10 CI challenges and activities gets students their first Tek badge. All academic areas covered in the beginner module will be used as building blocks for later stages.
The Technology Intermediate module allows students to test what simple machines they remember from the beginner module and how they can apply them. It also builds on what was covered in the beginner module by challenging their decision-making to get the team to the next badge. This sets the stage for a new adventure that will teach kids to apply different tools to help the team reach goals. ALYCI team members continue to help each other tackle problems that students will help them solve. Completion of all 10 CI challenges and activities gets students their second badge.
The adventure continues in the advanced module. The Advanced module is the next iteration of the ALYCI Kids club Technology Course. Students will need to make sure they are reading carefully to complete each CI Challenge. From learning to use tools, counting, problem-solving, measurement, it is all here! At this level, students will work mostly with Bounce and Brittany on an underwater adventure exploring submarines and the challenges of our oceans. Students will think through using technology to save various animals. Still building on some of the techniques from the beginner module students will find it clear how to complete each of the tasks. ALYCI team members continue to help each other tackle problems that students take part in. Completion of all 10 CI challenges and activities gets students their third badge.
Ready for a trip? It is on to a new and exciting country and the next level of fun with these awesome challenges! Throughout all the modules we have been moving towards gathering all of the team to find our new PowerShard. In the Genius level module, the gang’s all here and ready to explore pyramids in Africa! Incorporating addition, problem-solving, and challenging each student’s attention to detail we are all set to engage in a new team concept to acquire our next badge. Completion of all 10 CI challenges and activities gets students their final technology badge.
