    3:30 pm CST - 4:20 pm CST

Event Phone: (573) 645-0800

 

Let’s explore robotics! We’ll explore some of the many ways robots are used, then, you’ll help us program a robot to find the Girl Scout Cookies! Did you know your cell phone has sensors just like robots do? We’ll show you how to access those sensors so you can do some fun experiments. We’ll be using Arduino Science Journal to access the sensors on you phone or tablet.  Please download this free app before class.  You can read more about it here: https://science-journal.arduino.cc/
Tuition: $6, scholarships available, please ask.
This class will meet on Zoom, so you’ll need a device to run Zoom. To explore sensors, we’ll use the
We’re excited to help you earn your badge! (Badges may be purchased from the Girl Scouts when requirements are completed)

This is a live, online event with a limit of 10 per class.

30 minute workshop

Tuition: $6
Learn about coding as you program a cat to follow directions in a cool programming language called Scratch, Jr. Scratch, Jr is a fun language available free online and was developed for children ages 5-7. You can read more about it here: https://www.scratchjr.org/
Before we meet, download Scratch, Jr to a tablet, iPad or Android phone. It will not work on iPhones. It would be good to have 1 device for Zoom and one for Scratch, Jr. That way, you’ll be able to see the teacher’s screen and follow along.
We will complete the requirements for Badge 1 at this workshop.
