Patriot Robotics Summer Camp
Our first Robotics Camp was held in July 2019 with 80 students entering grades 5-9. Check back for 2020 dates and information in spring 2020!
Led by Beyer math teacher and robotics coach Heidi Pagani and organized by the Iron Patriots Robotics Team, the Patriots Robotics camp is aimed at students entering 5th-9th grade in fall 2019. Students will work with small teams to build robots to learn engineering, robotics, and entry-level program coding skills. Students will be encouraged to use creativity and imagination to brainstorm, build and experiment with robots.
The camp is a one week program with a mini-competition at the end of the week. The students will work together in small groups with experienced high school students through the design and programming process.
Beginner: 9 am-12 pm, July 8-12. This camp is for incoming 5th-9th graders with little or no previous robotics experience. This camp will be very structured with small teams working with high school students as a guide. The introductory camp will use Lego Mindstorms ev3.
Intermediate: 1-4 pm, July 8-12. This camp is geared towards incoming 5th-9th graders who have previous experience or classes with Lego Mindstorms or other robotics programs. The intermediate camp will use TETRIX robots.
Due to generous sponsors, including a Boyett Make Dreams Real grant, the first year of Patriot Robotics STEM camp is offered at a low cost of $30 per student. This cost includes a camp t-shirt.
