Summer Circuit Makers AND Robot Commanders
Dates: Monday-Friday, July 27-31
Time: 9:00-3:45pm
Who: Grades 1-3
Fee: $475 (Discount applied at checkout)
Location: The Brick Building, 97 School Street
Instructor: Circuit Lab
Circuit Makers: Let’s get creative with electricity! In this junior hands-on electronics class, students will gain experience with creating their own electronics; designing custom light-up greeting cards, electric games, mazes, and even musical instruments. Each class day consists of a circuitry lesson and a hands-on electronics project, using components like lights, buzzers, switches, motors, and sensors. Circuit Lab staff will make sure participants create a project that they can be proud of each day. Most class days include a take-home project.
Robot Commanders: Understanding how software can interact with robots is a key skill for the STEM jobs of tomorrow. In this class we provide several active, playful activities, where students learn about what it means to write, debug, and execute computer programs that communicate with different robotic devices. Using the power of code, students will turn Sphero SPRK+ robots into Magic 8 Balls, automated Red Light / Green Light games, and the arcade classic Pong – and Unruly Splats will become our voting machines, relay races, guessing games, and more. *If attending both Circuit Makers 101 & Robot Commanders 101, lunch will be supervised by Circuit Staff.
