A six-week course for ages 10 to 14 designed to spark interest in programming and robotics through guided instruction by experienced high school mentors

The Richard Montgomery High School robotics team, Rocket Robotics, is excited to offer a free, 6-week coding course for middle school students, designed to introduce beginners to the fundamentals of programming and spark interest in programming and robotics. This hands-on course will cover the fundamentals of coding using one of the most popular programming languages, Python. Students will receive guided instruction over the 6 session course which will help them understand key concepts (such as basic Python syntax, control structures like loops and if statements, working with arrays, creating reusable methods) and get set up to further advance their coding skills.

Experienced high school mentors will guide the participants, providing personalized support and encouragement. With each session building on the last, students will not only gain a solid foundation in Python programming that they can apply in robotics and other coding projects, but also the confidence to explore further in the world of technology and robotics. Whether you're new to coding or looking to strengthen your skills, this course will provide a supportive and engaging environment to get started with Python.

Students are encouraged to come to all 6 sessions but are also welcome to sign up for as many or as few as possible. 

Students may bring their own laptop computers, if possible, but laptops will be available for student use during the course if not!

Course runs June 9-July 14. Registration required -- limited to 15 students.

For ages 10 to 14.
