Preschool program for Wakefield Public Schools.
Wakefield Academy’s Extended Day Programs provide activities and experiences to help promote children’s physical, intellectual, emotional and social growth.
Gaming will never be the same again! In this fun and engaging camp, young learners dive into the exciting world of game design using fun, block-based coding! Students create interactive games and animations while learning core programming concepts in a hands-on, creative environment. Plus, enjoy a special Drone Programming Day, where kids use code to fly real drones and see their skills come to life!
Students do not need to have any coding experience!
Camp Outcomes: Campers will explore block-based coding to build interactive games while learning core game design concepts like characters, movement, controls, scoring, and rules. They will practice creative problem solving and logical thinking through debugging and using conditionals, loops, and events, and will collaborate to brainstorm, create, and share projects, gaining confidence with technology and expressing their creativity.
