Game Coding & Robotic Engineering
Bring science to life with LEGO® WeDo robotics! Students will team up in pairs to build and program LEGO® models using WeDo kits and Scratch software. Through hands-on projects, they’ll learn programming basics, engineering concepts, and the functions of robot components. Each class combines building, coding, and problem-solving as students create working machines in a fun, collaborative setting. This camp is a great introduction to robotics and STEM for young learners.
