If you are interested in this class please message me possible dates that work for your family.

Coding and programming are how we communicate with technology.   I will be offering this Multi day course so if you do not see a section that suits your family please reach out and I will work with you for a time that works for us both.  This will be your child’s first introduction to coding and programming with the help of Botley the robot. Your child will choose a theme, from, Mario, Pokémon, Rubber ducks, animals or cars. This would be a great STEM class.
Each day we will continue to build the coding skills needed to program my robot, learning how to think ahead and in the language needed to program successfully. Your child will think like they are my robot in giving directions. The focus will be on how the importance of the right order and correct number of instructions to get the robot to where we want it to go! We will use the same robot each day so that your child's skills can be built upon using the same robot, but they don’t need to have their own one to have fun and learn. A work sheet is provided so that your child can work on the directions for both their turn and others too. I would recommend laminating this or printing out many.
Each session we will go over what was covered before as a reminder, and then demonstrate the moves/instructions needed that session, such as Right, Left, Forward, Backward and Transmit. Each child will tell me the instructions so the challenge can be completed in one transmission to the robot. This helps the child think through each step of the instruction in advance to make sure the robot will meet the challenge. They will also learn about the importance of being exact when coding. 

The class will be interactive and your child will be encouraged to join in as they feel comfortable. Your child will learn to do basic coding/programming through a fun and collaborative way with no robot needed.

Please contact me if you want a different time to be available and I will see what can be done. I am very flexible.
