What to expect during the three weeks before Junior Engineering comes to your school.
 

Three to Four Weeks Before Delivery

An invoice and instructions will arrive at your school

Our Videos are now ONLINE! The videos correspond to certain lessons plans and links to those videos can be found in the lesson plans. Not all lesson plans will have videos. If you need a hard copy of the videos, please contact our office so we can send them to you in a timely manner!.

Teachers Choose Lessons and start reviewing lessons plans and videos (if the lesson has a video).

If you are not familiar with how the lessons are taught, read this link, Lesson Instructions.

The lesson plans are found on the Junior Engineering home page, under the Lesson Plans link. Descriptions of all the lessons are found on that page, under the link that says Lesson Descriptions. It is recommended that the teachers review the lessons and videos, at least one week before we deliver the program to your school. Remember not all lessons have a video.

Decide if your school will host an evening family fair. If yes, begin advertising your evening family fair.

Each school has the opportunity to showcase their school with an evening family fair. This is an opportunity for parents to come and experience what their children are learning. Attendance is usually high, depending on how much effort is put into informing parents about the evening fair.

Two Weeks Before Delivery

The Program Coordinator will call to help you prepare for your Junior Engineering Day.

The following is a link to the contact sheet the Coordinator will use when he calls you. Please review this sheet. Press the back button on your browser when you have finished reviewing it.
