Procon’s Florida Office invited local kindergarten class for a day of learning and play in an effort to promote excitement about construction and exposure to STEM at an early age.
As part of “Get to Know Your Neighborhood” day, the kindergarten class from St. Mark’s Episcopal School in Cocoa, FL took a short field trip to visit their neighbors two blocks away—the team at Procon’s FL office.
The kids got a hands-on intro to construction management, learned about our work with NASA at Kennedy Space Center, and impressed us with their knowledge of tools and materials. After a crash course in PPE, each student geared up with their own helmet, flashlight, and measuring tape, then followed blueprints to build Magnatile structures and even a tiny house! The day wrapped with ice cream, of course, because learning should always be fun.
Early exposure to STEM and construction helps children understand how things are built and how they work—planting the seeds for the next generation of innovators, builders, and engineers.
