Robotics: Building Blocks of a Creator (Age 6-8) @Sheung Wan

門票
通訊錄

This course is designed for young children to learn the fundamentals of robotics and programming.

Students practice giving commands to the robots in class by working on puzzles and projects. Basic concepts in mathematics and programming, such as time, speed and conditionals, will also be taught during class. Through the intuitive interface of their iPads, they are introduced to block programming to control the robots, as well as create small animations and games on their screen. By the end of the course, students would have moved beyond playing with their devices, and begin to see them as tools for a creative purpose.

Camp Highlights

8:1 Ratio Guarantee

First Code Academy believes in developing a personal relationship with the student. All instructors are as much teachers as they are facilitators, and coach for students' learning. By ensuring a small class, each student benefits from maximum attention from instructor and teaching assistant, and at the same time, learns from peers.

Personalized Learning

Courses are designed for students to run at their own pace. Curriculum is level-based for each module, meaning that each student can learn at their own appropriate, customized pace.

Hands-on Project-based Learning

First Code classrooms are messy and chaotic! First Code Academy believes in hands-on creation, experimental learning and lots of discussion.
