The camp provides an accelerated STEAM curriculum that balances academic rigor with a nurturing and fun learning environment, utilizing advanced robotics tools and fostering 21st-century skills.
The Stratford School Mission Viejo Robotics Academic Camp offers an engaging, hands-on learning experience for students in grades 1-5. Campers delve into the exciting world of robotics and computer science, fostering creativity, problem-solving skills, and teamwork. Utilizing LEGO Education WeDo Robotics software and kits, younger students (grades 1-2) learn basic computer science concepts through block programming and build simple robots like drumming monkeys and roaring lions. Older students (grades 3-5) advance to LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Robotics kits, constructing more complex robots such as an EV3 puppy or color-sorter, and programming them to complete challenge activities. The curriculum emphasizes important computer science concepts including loops, control flow, conditionals, and hardware components like motors and sensors. The camp provides a balanced approach, combining academic rigor with fun indoor and outdoor activities, including science and nature exploration, creative arts, sports, and games.
A typical day includes arrival and camp gathering, various activity blocks such as Artist Studio, Picture Perfect, Kids Helping Kids, Crack the Code, and Curtains Up, followed by lunch and recess, and then afternoon activities like STEAM Academy, Got Game, Recycled Beautifully, and Urban Designers, concluding with a closing meeting and departure.
This camp is best for elementary students who are curious about how things work and enjoy hands-on challenges, building, and collaborative problem-solving.
