AI for the
next generation.

Hands-on AI workshops for elementary and middle school STEM programs. Age-appropriate, curriculum-aligned, and built to make kids the ones who build with AI — not just the ones it happens to.

Why this, why now

The kids who
build with AI
win the future.

This is Cheryl's passion project. She grew up when computers were a rumor in most classrooms — and she watched an entire generation of kids get left behind because the adults around them didn't know how to teach what was next.

She refuses to let that happen with AI. Every workshop is built on one belief: kids don't need to be protected from AI, they need to be taught to use it well — with curiosity, judgment, and a little bit of swagger.

We work with elementary and middle school STEM programs to bring real AI literacy into the room. Not slides. Not warnings. Real tools, real projects, real "I built that" moments.

What students do

Four experiences, one outcome.

01

Prompting like a pro

Students learn to talk to AI the way a scientist talks to a lab — with clear questions, honest feedback, and curiosity.

02

Build a mini AI helper

Every student walks out having built something — a homework buddy, a story generator, a science quiz coach.

03

AI ethics for kids

What's real, what's not, and why it matters. Kids learn to spot AI-generated content and think critically about it.

04

Creative AI projects

Art, music, storytelling and inventions — showing students AI is a creative tool, not a shortcut.

Workshops · Learning outcomes

The workshops, unpacked.

Each session is age-banded, standards-aware and built around what students will actually be able to do when they walk out.

Grades 3–560 min · up to 30 students

AI Explorers

A playful first taste of AI. Students meet chatbots, image generators and voice tools through guided missions, then build their own 'AI helper' character.

Students will
  • Explain what AI is (and isn't) in their own words
  • Write clear, specific prompts that get better answers
  • Recognize when an image or voice was made by AI
Grades 6–890 min · up to 25 students

AI Builders Lab

A hands-on studio where every student ships something — a homework coach, a study-guide generator, or a mini custom chatbot for a subject they love.

Students will
  • Design and refine prompts using role, task and constraints
  • Build and test a working AI assistant end-to-end
  • Evaluate AI output for accuracy, bias and hallucinations
All ages · Assembly45 min · whole school

The Future Is Yours

A high-energy keynote with live demos that shows students AI is a tool they get to steer — not a mystery box the adults control.

Students will
  • See real careers and pathways powered by AI
  • Leave inspired and curious, not scared
  • Understand the responsibility that comes with the power
Multi-week · Club4–8 weeks · 45 min sessions

AI Creators Club

A recurring after-school program where a small cohort builds a portfolio of AI projects — art, stories, games and problem-solvers — culminating in a family showcase night.

Students will
  • Complete 3+ original AI-powered projects
  • Present work confidently to peers and parents
  • Develop a personal 'AI creator' portfolio
Formats

Pick the shape that fits your school.

School assembly

45–60 minute high-energy talk for the whole school. Big ideas, live demos, standing-ovation energy.

Classroom workshop

90 minutes with a single grade or STEM class. Hands-on, small-group, every student builds.

After-school club

Multi-week series for a smaller cohort. Deeper projects, more time to explore.

Teacher PD

Professional development for educators — how to use AI in lesson planning, feedback and classroom management.
