Krish Behera, an independent and fun-loving neutron, is our Science Mind of the Month for September! Over the course of the last year Krish has explored physics and engineering principles as part of the Intermediate STEM curriculum. Notable projects he has completed include the inclined plane and his favorite project, the trundle wheel. When asked why he likes coming to class Krish said, “I love to build Legos and I try to learn new Lego building skills so that I can build anything”. One day Krish hopes to put his lego building skills to work as a Lego engineer who creates new Lego robotics projects. One idea he has is to create a remote controlled Lego train. Krish’s parents bring Krish to Science Cosmos so, “he can learn new Lego Robotics techniques and build more advanced projects when he grows older. We look forward to many more great ideas from Krish in the future!

Simar Malhi is a long time member of the Science Cosmos family and our Science Mind of the month for August! Simar started as a Neutron 2 years ago where she mastered the intermediate STEM and Pneumatics curriculum. Intermediate STEM taught her concepts of potential and kinetic energy and renewable energy sources. The Pneumatics curriculum included Simar’s favorite project, A scarecrow that moves via pressurized air.
More recently Simar has focused more on programming as she learned to control the NXT and Ev3. Simar faces even the most difficult programming challenges with cheerfulness and a smile. With this approach she has crafted Ev3 programs that detect and avoid obstacles. Her most recent challenges test her ability to program simultaneous tasks and integrate inputs from multiple sensors. Simar is a very talented 9 year old who enjoys programming and robotics. One day she hopes to turn this passion into a career as a NASA engineer.

Arjun Jothiramalingam is the Science Mind of the Month in Chantilly for July 2015. Arjun has been with us for over a year now and he is always a joy to have in the classroom. He has worked on various curriculums like Robotics, Renewable Energy, Intermediate STEM, and NXT. His favorite is the Renewable energy Curriculum.
While working on these projects he has always showed his continuous desire to learn about robots and their many uses. He looks forward to finding new ways to use his NXT Mindstorms robot, anything from making a windmill to using the bluetooth add-on that comes with the NXT Robot, Arjun will only continue to amaze us here at Science

Arjun is the Science Mind of the Month in Ashubrn for June 2015. Arjun is a 4th grader and has been attending Science Cosmos since he was in the first grade and loves a good building challenge. Arjun transferred to Ashburn from Chantilly. He started out with us in the beginning robotics programs, creating animals that are animated, and challenging builds such as the carousel and crane. He worked with electrical engineering courses and Mindstorms NXT and EV3 intermediate robotics.
Arjun’s favorite subject in school is math and his favorite movie is the Lego Movie.
He loves to play tennis and is in the top 50 Mid-Atlantic Club, but that is not all! He is also a Black Belt in karate, and he studies the guitar!
He is a well rounded student and his dream is to become a Tennis Professional when he grows up!

Samsher is our student (Electron) at the Ashburn Center. He loves to work on programming his NXT models and build Cool Robots. He started off as a Neutron and mastered the Into Robotics courses and graduated to the intermediate robotics course. Samsher is a fourth grade student who has been a member of our Science Cosmos Family for over two years. He loves to build with the variety of materials we have and always looks for the purpose and leaning component of his builds. When Asked, he says that math is his favorite subject in school. He is a very active young man and loves to play with his Science Cosmos friends in our gym after class. He is a friend to everyone and has made many friends at Science Cosmos and we look forward to his participation each week. He and his sister were students at the Chantilly center before they transferred. See his photo album and look at the cool models he build. To recognize him you can Like and comment on our Facebook post about him. See his photo album HERE.

Sahishnu is a long time student at Science Cosmos, and attends classes at the Ashburn center. He has been doing advanced EV3 Projects, and has some really Cool Robots he built that we were displaying for everyone to see at the center. He has worked on Data Science projects and learnt how to take temperature measurements and do experiments with the EV3 robot. He was a Student in Chantilly and transferred to the Ashburn center. He has completed many courses and deserves to be recognized as a Science Mind of the month. He is a bright student and is always on task with his projects. He loves to modify and revise his robot builds – a hallmark of a creative thinker. He is courteous to his teachers and peers and liked by all SEE SAHISHNUS PHOTO ALBUM
