Lehigh Carbon Community College‘s Early Learning Center offered different STEM summer sessions for children ages three through six, throughout July and the beginning of August.

The camp provided fun activities for children while incorporating academic learning in science, technology, engineering and mathematics.

Campers in a recent session learned the fundamentals of building bridges.

Early Learning Center Administrator Elizabeth Lipman said the campers worked very hard on building their own bridges, using their own designs.

After pulling ideas out of a bridge book that gives examples of self-built bridges and having class discussions with their teacher, Jamie S. Walck, the campers were prepared to make sketches and construct their own bridges.
