44 /lombardparks Youth & Teen ROBOTICS & CODING (Ages 8-11) RoboThink offers academically oriented STEM programs focusing on coding for budding, intermediate or advanced students. Armed with motors, sensors, gears and mainboards, students code robot creations of all shapes, sizes and functions! Each session, students are introduced to coding concepts through our trained instructors and STEM workbooks. Students are in turn, asked to apply these concepts to solve challenges, provide solutions to problems and build creative robots. No prior experience is required, our instructors are trained to assess and adjust our curriculum as necessary to meet your student's level. Students use a specialized version of Scratch to code the robots that they build! With our step- by-step curriculum, beginner students cover sequencing, If & Else Statements, Conditionals, and reading and using sensor data. Intermediate and advanced students additionally cover variables, lists and operational states.
