Programming Camp

Programming in Scratch

Camp Duration: Each camp is a 4 day camp that meets 3 hours each day, and limited to 10 students.

Ages: 9-14

Cost: $180

Computer programming teaches problem solving, how to recognize simple and complex patterns, data analysis and how to develop algorithms.  Students that develop these skills will be able to apply them to many other subjects, as well as in life.

Students will each have their own computer and will learn to program using Scratch – a programming language developed by MIT and intended to make programming accessible to students and FUN to use.  Scratch can be used by elementary and middle school students to create games, computer animation and other multimedia projects.

Introduction to Programming in Scratch: This class will introduce students to basic programming principals and techniques.  Students will learn the basics of the Scratch language as they work through tasks and projects from easy to difficult.

Advanced Programming in Scratch: Students will continue to explore the Scratch programming language by using what they learned in our introduction camp to complete more complex challenges.

Class will meet 3 hours each day for 4 days, and will be limited to 10 students. If students miss a class there are no makeups.
