Robotics Coding Virtual Camp – Summer Program

Skill Development Program logo

2020-2021 Skill Development Program (Summer Program)

Trillium Lakelands District School Board (TLDSB) is excited to partner with LEARN Style to provide students with Autism Spectrum Disorder (ASD) a virtual summer camp experience in July. Students will learn computation problem-solving strategies and basic coding concepts through graphical code and block code to build friendships through a shared interest in computers, coding and robotics.

Who?

Students who are in Grades 3-11 with ASD during the 2020-2021 school year and who the school team feels would benefit from and participate in social skills instruction. Participating students must be motivated to participate in a group virtual learning session using Google Meet (90 minutes a day for one week). Curious beginners and those with some prior experience will love this robotics-themed camp!

When?

Camp will run July 5-9 OR July 12-16. Sessions will run from 10-11:30 a.m. OR 1-2:30 p.m. Preference for session dates/times will be selected using the registration form.

What does the program look like?

  • 5 x 90 minute remote (virtual) sessions of group and self-paced coding activities. 
  • A partnership with parents/guardians (and students) in order to enhance student participation and success. 
  • One LearnStyle coach per group of five students.
