The camp combines diverse teaching methods, from screen-free activities to engaging with various robots and popular coding apps, to make learning to code accessible and enjoyable for young children.
In Coding FUNdamentals, campers delve into the foundational concepts of coding through a variety of engaging methods. Activities include unplugged exercises, board games, storytelling, and role-playing to illustrate computational thinking. Campers will also gain hands-on experience with friendly robots like Dash & Dot, Bee-Bots, and Cubetto. The program incorporates popular coding apps such as CodeSpark Academy, Lightbot, and Osmo Coding. The primary goal is to foster computational thinking skills, build confidence in coding, and ensure a fun learning environment. The camp aims to provide a solid introduction to coding for young learners.
A typical day involves an opening circle, followed by various coding activities using robots, apps, and unplugged methods, and concludes with a closing circle.
This camp is ideal for elementary-aged students with little to no prior exposure to coding who are eager to explore the core concepts of computer programming in a fun and interactive way.
