Continue your child's coding journey with this exciting STEM class! Before joining, they should complete my Coding Fun With a Botley Robot. Mission 1: Let’s get Moving to understand how Botley moves. This flexible, one-time class fits your schedule—choose sessions that work best! In this lesson, your child will program Botley to collect escaped zoo animals and return it home, building coding skills through fun, interactive learning. Botley follows a similar programming style to Beebot, a tool used in many schools, making this a great opportunity to reinforce STEM skills. Materials & Setup: • Print the attached PDFs so your child can draw the challenges they aren't coding. • No accessory pack needed, but if using one, set up the tiles in a 2x3 grid before class. I'm happy to adjust timing to suit your family’s needs—just let me know! This class requires at least 2 children to run or it will be cancelled.
Learning Goals
By the end of the session, your child will be able to understand that an algorithm is a set of instructions, program a toy by inputting a sequence of commands/codes, and predict how different sequences lead to different outcomes.
Other Details
Supply List
No materials are required for this engaging class! However, you can download the PDF to keep your child actively learning when it's not their turn, making the experience even more enriching.
