We use age appropriate online tools including code.org, Lightbot, Kodable, and/or Scratch.

Full Day Felting

For this summer camp, we use felting needles and create a pillow with a fun felt design. Special felting needles are needles with very sharp barbed blades. Needle felting is a process that uses a barbed metal needle that is poked into a foam block that works to interlock fibers and form a design in countless ways. A felting kit is provided and the students will bring it home at the end of the week to continue their creative felting projects!

Game Development: Intermediate/Advanced (Coder’s Ladder Experience: Level 2–3)

July 10–14 Camps

Prerequisites: Understanding of basic coding concepts (variables, conditionals, debugging, etc).

Ability to independently create simple games.* This is for coders who are ready to take their game development skills up to the next level. Instructors serve as guides and coaches to small groups of campers as they build more complex games of their own.

These games feature advanced concepts such as Artificial Intelligence (AI), game physics, or multi-player functionality. After the camp has ended, campers are able to share projects with family and friends and continue programming at home with their Coding with Kids Scratch account. *Students typically achieve this level of knowledge in one 8-week session of classes or one week of summer camps. (Third and fourth grade students may need to double that experience, or should take two beginner camps before moving forward.)

Does your child love Minecraft? Is your child ready to extend the game and build on this interest to learn coding? This camp is perfect! Students have access to their own Minecraft server where they customize the game with their own world maps and game features. They code mods to create new tools, items, environments, and non-playable characters, and then test out these features as they play the game. Students with previous experience create their own skin packs or even make multiplayer battle arenas. During this process, campers use their creativity and problem solving skills while learning programming and building mods.

Is your emerging coder ready to learn a professional programming language? Python is a very versatile language that is widely used by software developers, as well as scientists or data analysts. Campers are introduced to Python, gain valuable experience with key concepts like data structures and algorithms, and build several projects. The projects may include terminal-based game, data analysis, or web scraping.
