More from Coding and Robotics Camp

Coding and Robotics Camp
Wednesday and Thursday

The campers continue to be engaged and busy in camp.  Variables and operators were introduced as coding concepts.




Campers also explored the role circuitry using the Makey-Makey and Scratch tor create fruit pianos and using the Snap Circuits to create a rover.



Yesterday, campers completed the National Geographic Robotic Challenge by designing robots on the computer to help with specific environmental problems.  Since this challenge was designed for students in Grade 3 to 10, campers worked in pairs - an older camper helping a younger camper with the reading the instructions and background information.






The Middle School campers continued working on their EV3 robots.  Carter finished his on Wednesday and started to code it.  Evie, Yamen and Isabella completed theirs on Thursday and quickly the two robots were both moving around the lab.
