Lego Camp Thursday

Today was A for Art at Lego Camp.  

We used Legos with traditional art methods.  Campers painted a picture using Lego tires and created a Lego frame (which will be sent home tomorrow). 

We also explored Legos with digital arts. Campers created a digital Lego picture using a computer graphics program called Pixie.  They then explored how digital pictures are used in creating computer software while coding a path for Bits in the Lego online coding game, Bits and Bricks.
