Multi-week Programs
Introduction to MakeCode
Grades 5-7 Multi-week course with Circuit Playground Express and MakeCode. Best for beginners of ages 9-15, this graphical block based coding format translates to Javascript for a more comprehensive coding experience.
Introduction to CircuitPython
Grades 6-9 Based on the original single day workshop with Circuit Playground Express and CircuitPython. Starts with an overview of how to work with the board’s sensors and lights through code and ends with a capstone project of the student’s creation.
Robotics
Grades 8-11 Learn the fundamentals of robotics through combining components such as sensors, servos and gears to an Adafruit CircuitPlayground Express microcontroller board.
Single Day Programs
Intro to CircuitPython - Level 1
This is the original single day workshop with Circuit Playground Express and CircuitPython. Includes an overview of the board’s sensors and lights through code. Allows students to dig into an aspect of the device they enjoy for an afternoon of exploration.
Coding with CircuitPython - Level 2
This course builds on the original single day workshop with Circuit Playground Express and CircuitPython to fill out the student’s understanding of basic programming concepts.
