Event Description

CoderDojo is a free program for kids from kindergarten to 5th grade. Children can freely explore any STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, & Mathematics) themed stations, with mentors available to help them get started, allowing your child to learn and explore on their own. Assata Worrell: Scientific Illustrations! Assata Caldwell Worrell is the Founder of LEGACY BioStudios, LLC and she will guide students through learning how to illustrate various visual representations of scientific subjects, including plants, animals, insects, and fungi. If there is a particular scientific subject a student wants to draw, they can bring it into CoderDojo and Assata can help guide them in drawing it. Students will receive their very own drawing field notebook. Hands-On Stations: Hour of Code: Engage in self-guided activities tailored to your coding comfort level. Activities include Scratch Block Programming, which allows you to easily build stories and games using “blocks” of code. You can also play Codecombat, an innovative live coding strategy game for beginners. Learn Python or JavaScript as you defeat ogres, solve mazes, and level up. Turing Tumble: a logic puzzle where students work to solve problems using levers and marbles. It helps kids understand computer science concepts without computers! Create your own designs or work through the ‘challenge’ booklet for a little more structure to the play Snap Circuits: Learn basic engineering, electronics, and circuitry concepts using Snap Circuits! Snap Circuits use easy-to-connect components to assemble electronic circuits on a simple “rows-and-columns” base grid that you build functions like the printed circuit boards in most electronic products. Microscopes: Kids can explore biology up close with a self-guided microscope with over 200 slides. Drones: Kids can maneuver drones (with adult supervision) around obstacle courses.
