STEM Summer Camp 2016

Summer Break doesn’t mean learning has to take a break! Join the Appalachia Intermediate Unit 8 for their STEM Summer Camps!

The Appalachia Intermediate Unit 8 STEM Summer Camps will take place June 27-30 at the Greater Johnstown Career & Technology Center, and August 8-11 at the Appalachia Intermediate Unit 8 office in Altoona from 8:30 am until 12:00 pm.

The Dash and Dot camp for grades 4 and 5 will focus on robotics with coding, programing, creating commands and navigating objects. Students will also create music and art through code.

Lego Mindstroms will provide students with the chance to design and build programmable robots using motors, sensors, gears, wheels and axels as well as other technical components. Using the program app, students will be able to test and troubleshoot the robot and revise their deisgns to improve performance. Participants will demonstrate their robot’s functions on the last day.
