3:15 PM - 4:45 PM    Adventures in STEM using LEGO® Materials - Adventures in STEM using LEGO® Materials (K-2nd)
The Community Center is proud to continue our partnership with Play-Well!Kids are already naturally gifted creators. Then they get added inspiration from our specially trained instructors. They dive into our massive collections of LEGO®. And while they build elaborate objects, structures, and vehicles, they explore fundamental principles of engineering and physics. They also learn to collaborate and create without fear of mistakes. The experience is joyful, the impact long-lasting. Let your imagination run wild with tens of thousands of LEGO® parts! Build engineer-designed projects and use special pieces to create your own unique designs! Projects are rotated seasonally to ensure that both new and returning students can explore the endless creative possibilities of the LEGO® building system.Radical Rides using LEGO® MaterialsStart your engines with tens of thousands of LEGO® parts as you dive into the vast world of vehicles! Build and design an array of exciting machines, traversing land, sea, and air, with the assistance of experienced Play-Well instructors. Learn about the engineering principles behind motors, gears, and everything that vrooms and zooms!Winter Session Dates: January 20, 2026 through March 17, 2026 *no class on 2/17 Ages/Grades: K-2nd Days/Times: Tuesdays; 3:15 - 4:45 Fees: $240 Location: East Room For more information email Lori Ramirez, lramirez@sgvcc.org

7:00 PM - 9:00 PM    ASTRONOMY 101: WHAT’S UP IN THE WINTER NIGHT SKY? - ASTRONOMY 101: WHAT’S UP IN THE WINTER NIGHT SKY?
The highlight of the Winter Sky is, for many people, the Orion constellation. But do you know about the Orion Nebula, lying just below Orion’s belt? With binoculars and a telescope we’ll get a closer view of this “star nursery”. What about the Pleiades? Can you easily locate this beautiful open star cluster high in the night sky? These objects, plus the beautifully-colored stars of the Winter Hexagon, will be the main subject of this Winter class. We’ll also have good looks at Saturn and Jupiter too! During the 6 weeks of the class there will be at least one visit to my home observatory in Woodacre, http://overthehillobservatory.net FEE: $60 for 6 class sessions. DAYS/TIME: 6 Thursday nights, Jan. 22—Feb. 26, 7-9 pm Location: East Room  CONTACT: Rich Lohman: richneal@pacbell.net, 415-488-1938 (h), 510-292-8416 (text)Register at https://sgvcc.myrec.com
