After School Programs- Snapology Creature Creator Robotics - Creature Creator Robotics - Downingtown Middle
Creature Creator Robotics In Snapology's Creature Creator program, your animal lover will build a variety of robotic creatures that respond to each of their programmed commands. While working with a partner to solve 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. It's going ot be a RAWR-ing good time!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 and error to make the code usable.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. 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 play the games. 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. Please note: In order to ensure the affordability of Snapology programs, children do not get to keep or take home their projects; however, we capture their creative achievements through photography, allowing parents to admire and cherish their creations. We need 6 children registered to run any of these programs!
