5th & 6th graders: Ozobot Programming and HTML Website Design

Campers in the 5th and 6th grades will work with the Ozobot Evo robot, which is a small programmable robot that can be controlled using block-based programming. Girls will use a graphical interface to drag and drop code blocks to control the robot's behavior. Programming Evo will cover key concepts such as: sequences, loops, conditionals, variables, line navigation, debugging, and color code.

The campers will also be designing a website with multiple pages, learning how to create links between different pages, and how to structure content using HTML tags.

Throughout the program, the campers will be able to watch their programming in real time, watching the robot's behavior change as they modify their code. This real-time feedback can be a valuable tool for helping children learn about cause-and-effect relationships in programming and for building confidence in their abilities.
