The camp provides a hands-on opportunity for young campers to program Sphero robots using Scratch, combined with creative activities like building Lego puzzles and binary bracelets.
The Junior Coder Summer Camp at Club SciKidz Charlotte South offers an engaging introduction to robotics and programming for elementary-aged campers. Participants will learn to program a Sphero bot using Scratch software on a tablet, gaining fundamental coding skills through hands-on activities. The curriculum extends beyond basic programming to include creative projects such as designing Lego puzzles and crafting binary bracelets. Campers will also explore robotics concepts and the rules governing robot behavior, fostering an understanding of how technology works. The camp aims to spark curiosity in STEM fields and develop problem-solving abilities in a fun and interactive environment.
A typical day includes general check-in, an all-camp science demonstration, multiple S.T.E.A.M rotations, snack breaks, lunch with recess, and afternoon activities like Minute to Win It games and outdoor team-building exercises.
This camp is best for elementary-aged children (grades 1-3) who are curious about how robots work and eager to learn the basics of programming in a hands-on, creative setting.
