Upcoming Classes
Fun with Energy, Light, and Sound
1st-2nd Grade
Tuesdays 9:50-10:45
8 Weeks: January 14, 21, 28 February 4, 11, 18, 25 March 3
Location: Jewish Community Center of Mission Viejo (JJC)
Tuition: $170
Investigate the invisible world of physics - air, heat, sound and light waves - as we experiment with air pressure, sources of energy, and the ways sound and light travel. Students engage with hands on demonstrations and activities to gain a concrete understanding of the invisible properties of physics. Simple worksheets to summarize main concepts may be completed in class or suggested for homework.
Outside Classwork: minimal occasional outside classwork, under 30 minutes
Instructor: Lisa Antonic

Introduction to Robotics
1st-3rd Grade
Thursdays 9:00-11:00
5 Weeks: September 5, 12, 19 October 3, 24 (No Class September 26, October 10, 17)
Location: Jewish Community Center (JCC)
Tuition: $190
Starting with a controller, robotic brain, and boxes full of structure pieces, your young engineers will build a robot to meet the day’s challenge, starting with a Drag Race and SoccerBots. Using a pattern, they will build a two-motor chassis. Their robot will need to gather points in the game and defend their own goal. The second half of the event, they will rethink their design, modify, and get creative. Each week or two ends with a fun competition. Who can beat the challenge, and who can do it the most creatively? Other challenges may include Demolition Derby, High Rise or SumoBots.
Outside Classwork: None
Instructor: Cheri Haggard

Wave Wonders
5th-8th Grade
Tuesdays 1:00-2:15
3 Weeks: January 14, 21, 28
Location: Mission Viejo Family YMCA
Tuition: $145
Have you ever watched sound in action or wondered how scientists find the epicenter of earthquakes? Wave Wonder students Students will examine different kinds of waves found in nature by studying the waves of sound, water, and the earth. They will compare the similarities and differences in the characteristics of longitudinal, transverse, and surface waves while investigating how energy is transferred along a wave. Exploration of sound waves will include hands-on experimentation with sound moving through different types of media. Student scientists will also discover what causes waves to break and how wave concepts are applied to earthquakes. Throughout the class, students will be encouraged to think about how wave knowledge can be applied improving technology.
Outside Classwork: Details Coming Soon!

Testimonials
"These classes are a great combination of hands-on activities, collaboration, and critical thinking! My kids looked forward to going to class each week."
~ Melinda P., Homeschool Parent
"C3 is one of the greatest parts of homeschooling. The entire atmosphere is amazing. All the students are kind, welcoming, and friendly. The teachers are humble, approachable, and filled with knowledge. The classes are easy to follow, and don't require much time dedication outside of class. They are interesting and educational, but they are fun at the same time. I have learned not only about biology and speech and debate (some of the classes I've taken there), but about how to be a better version of myself. The compassion of the teachers and the passion of the students urge me to act the same way, and they subsequently make me better as a person. Every time I go to C3, I am excited to see my classmates and learn more with them. For, in this case, the learning aspect of a class isn't boring or difficult. The classes are structured in such a way that it keeps me engaged and is enjoyable to be a part of. It devastates me that, as of next academic year, I will be too old for the C3 classes. C3 is a fun, educational, and friendly environment." - Ella, age 15
