About this event

Snapology’s Real World Robotics focuses on the real-life applications of robotics. In this program, your engineer will explore the basics of robotics while building some amazing & helpful devices with their classmates! They will explore how robots help humans live in the modern world and explore other worlds! While working with a partner to complete various challenges, your student will be taught how to effectively utilize sensors, how different mechanical components work in their robots, and how programming is a challenging but rewarding skill that they can master with just a little practice. We will support them in the development of their coding and building skills and inspire them with creative building challenges. CLICK HERE TO VIEW THE EXPERIENCE TRAILER WHAT THE STUDENTS WILL LEARN Programming Skills With each new model, students will be given a program to operate their robotic build. They will learn how to read the program code and then fix an error to make the code useable. By fixing errors in a broken program code, students will learn how to debug and modify their programs quickly. Whether making their build respond to various sensors, adding loops and fun sounds, or modifying variables, children will learn valuable programming skills through the Scratch-based coding platform. Mechanical Elements In each activity, students will be asked to identify the key mechanical components used in each robotic model. They will complete this before they ever build the model so they better understand how the pieces work together in the final design. They will understand the importance and use of motors, sensors, gears, axles, their robot Hub and so much more. Following Instructions An important component of this program is following verbal and written instructions. Throughout each lesson, your student will be required to listen, pick up on routines and follow instructions in order to complete the model and interact with their builds. The best part, practicing this skill comes easy in this program because your student is having fun and supported each step of the way. Communication and Collaboration Skills Small groups and peer partners are key components of Snapology's educational approach. We emphasize positive teamwork skills and constantly work to develop healthy, respectful collaborations between students. Through team projects and fun partner experiences, your student will become more cognizant of how to interact with their peers in a respectful and productive way.

Olympic Summer Games | Snapology Camp

Mon, Aug 31 · 8:30 AM

S.T.E.A.M Lab · LIC

VIEW EXPERIENCE TRAILER HERE In Snapology's Summer Games program, students will learn about the history of the Olympic Games and specific Olympic sports. They will use these sports as the backdrop for their building, creativity, & teamwork. Students will learn and use engineering concepts to help them build creations out of LEGO® bricks. The world’s favorite summer games will be their muse! Through collaboration and friendly competition with their classmates, students will also learn what it means to be a good-sport. WHAT THE STUDENTS WILL LEARN Creativity & Critical Thinking: In this program, creativity is at the front and center of everything we do. Each activity encourages students to embrace their imagination and create sport-inspired items with a unique, personalized twist. By using visual aids, holding creative classroom brainstorming sessions, and giving basic building parameters, students will be supported as they take creative risks and are guided when they aren’t sure what to build next. Problem Solving and Experimentation: Students will use their various LEGO® models to complete a series of building and engineering challenges. Through observation and predictions, students will test how manipulating their models can result in an unexpected outcome! They will then use this knowledge to design and build their own contraptions inspired by our favorite summer games! Engineering Concepts: With the guidance of a Snapology Instructor, your students will build models that utilize gears, wheels, axles, and more. These models will become a hands-on tool to learn about the sport being discussed as well as physics concepts such as pulleys, gears, levers, and more! Teamwork & Collaboration Skills: Even the best engineers need to work with others to do their best! At Snapology, we emphasize that there’s power in teamwork and constantly work to develop healthy, respectful collaborations between students. Through group planning, building, and modification, your student will become more cognizant of how to interact with their peers in a respectful and productive way. Additional Details: Camp & Creative Play will occur from 9 AM-3:30 PM and drop off begins each day at 8:30am. For maximum efficiency, we ask you to be punctual at arrival and dismissal times. Campers are required to bring in their own lunch, 1 snack, and a drink every day. Please pack lunches in paper bags or lunch coolers and put the child’s name on each bag. Snapology Day Camp is a “nut sensitive” environment. As we have several students with food allergies, no peanut or tree nut products are permitted.
