Using a mix of digital tools and basic robotics, kids will embark on a creative adventure, crafting their very own winter wonderland and animated tales set in the Arctic.
Learning outcomes
In this session, participants will explore the world of digital storytelling by combining art, animation, and basic robotics. They will learn how to create animated characters and scenes using digital tools, and may even incorporate simple robotics to add interactivity or motion to their stories. This camp emphasises creativity, visual storytelling, and technical skills, helping children to turn imaginative ideas into dynamic visual narratives. It also encourages collaboration and enhances digital literacy through hands-on engagement with animation software and simple robotics systems.
Information for parents
Whether your child is completely new to coding and robotics, or has completed a BlueShift camp or course before, this course is perfect for them!
Camp structure
First off we'll get to know our teacher and classmates through some great mini games. Once we're all friends, we'll be introduced to our activity for the day. Let's jump in to coding!
Now that we've had a healthy snack, we're ready to get right back into our activity. We'll carry on flexing our creative muscles by designing, coding and building our project.
Let's refocus after lunch and playtime by diving into building our robots!
It's time to finish off our project for the day and show it off to the rest of the class. Time has flown by - let's tidy up our work stations, pack up our things and get ready to go home!
I liked making my robot move!
