Campamento privado de codificación en Python | ¡Programa un juego de lucha de monstruos!

In this 1-week coding camp, students will learn the basics of Python programming and end the week with a text-based game to play and adapt! Learners progress through a series of lessons that introduce the most important Python skills and learn to code with fun projects like custom Mad-Libs and a Pokemon-like Monster Battler! This camp can be taken up to four times by the same student, for a total of 16 sessions.

The first time you enroll in this camp, we will cover the content in Camp A.
The second time you enroll, we will cover the content in Camp B.

This course is organized so that one topic will be covered during a 25-minute session. However, the content that is taught in each class is flexible and tailored to the student, so the pace may be sped up or slowed down to prioritize the student's learning and enjoyment!

Students will need to be able to use Google Colab for this camp. If the student or guardian has experience using Jupyter notebooks or another Python editor, these can be used instead of Colab.
