Starting with Beast Academy Basics
Students begin by mastering foundational concepts like number sense, patterns, and simple problem-solving strategies. This core knowledge allows them to tackle basic mathematical puzzles and engage their curiosity as they explore the logic behind each problem.

Experimenting with Visual Math Tools
We encourage students to use the visual and interactive tools that Beast Academy offers, such as puzzles, illustrations, and step-by-step examples. These resources help them grasp complex ideas more easily and focus on developing critical thinking and problem-solving skills without getting bogged down by complex formulas.

Building Problem-Solving Skills with Fun Challenges
Kids apply their learning through engaging challenges like solving puzzles, cracking codes, and playing number games. This hands-on approach solidifies their understanding and gives them a sense of accomplishment when they complete a puzzle or reach a solution.

Starting with Scratch Basic Concepts
Our kids start by understanding Scratch basic concepts like sprites, blocks, and a scene. This foundational knowledge enables them to create simple yet functional animations and stories, sparking their creativity as they bring their ideas to life.

Experimenting with Scratch Design Tools
Encourage kids to explore Scratch design features like customizing sprites and backgrounds or experimenting with sound effects. These tools help them understand design principles and give them the opportunity to focus on layout, color schemes, and interactive elements without having to dive into complex coding concepts.

Building Projects and Games
Kids apply their learning to a real-world project, such as creating a simple interactive story, character animation, or a simple game, helping kids gain hands-on experience. This hands-on approach reinforces their learning and gives them a sense of accomplishment when they see their finished project come to life.

Start with Basic HTML and CSS
Kids should begin by understanding the structure of web pages using HTML and how to style them using CSS. This foundational knowledge allows them to create simple but functional web pages and sparks their creativity as they see their ideas come to life.

Experiment with Web Design Tools
Encourage kids to explore user-friendly website builders like WordPress or drag-and-drop platforms like Wix or Weebly. These tools help them understand web design principles without needing advanced coding skills, allowing them to focus on layout, color schemes, and user experience.

Build a Simple Project
Applying their knowledge to a real project, like creating a personal blog, a portfolio, or a simple game, helps kids gain practical experience. This hands-on approach reinforces their learning and provides a sense of accomplishment when they see their finished product online.

Creativity is the Key
3D modeling and graphic design rely on creativity and imagination. Kids can design anything they envision, from digital 3D models to eye-catching visuals, print their 3D creations, and save their graphic projects. These activities develop their creative skills in fun and engaging ways, whether through hands-on tactile learning or designing with digital tools.

Engineering Thinking
In 3D modeling classes, kids progress from simple to complex projects. They begin by designing basic objects and, by the end of the program, become proficient in 3D design and materials science. Similarly, in graphic design, they explore raster and vector graphics, mastering techniques to create digital illustrations, edit photos, and design logos or other visual content.

Visual Skills
Throughout the course, kids work with shapes and designs, whether in 3D modeling or graphic editing. In 3D modeling, they view objects from various perspectives, enhancing their spatial awareness. In graphic design, they learn the differences between raster and vector graphics, how to manipulate pixels for photo editing, and how to use scalable vector elements for precision designs. This dual focus sharpens their visual-spatial relationships and selective attention, fostering a well-rounded understanding of both physical and digital creativity.

Building Foundational Math Skills
Children develop a strong foundation in math by exploring numbers, patterns, and shapes through interactive and engaging activities. These early math skills set the stage for logical thinking and problem-solving as they prepare for school.

Introduction to Robotics and Technology
Through hands-on projects, kids are introduced to the basics of robotics, such as assembling and programming simple models. This sparks their curiosity about how technology works and encourages creativity and innovation.

Fostering Social and Emotional Growth
Working on group projects and collaborative tasks helps children build essential social skills like teamwork, communication, and patience. These experiences also boost their confidence, preparing them for a smooth transition to the school environment.
