Calling all gamers! Have a blast creating robotic games each while learning about robotics. Students will learn about gear ratio, sensors, programming, and pulleys as they create fun to play games. Whether creating pinball machine, duck hunt or a ring toss game, your child is sure to have fun building, learning, and playing.
Boylston Parks and Recreation is pleased to offer GameBots with Snapology over the winter break. This class is for students age 7-14 years old and in the 2nd-8th grade. The classes will take place on Dec. 29, 30, and 31 from 9am-noon in the new Parks & Recreation office at 221 Main Street. Not only will this class be fun and entertaining, but the children will explore coding and engineering concepts while having fun!
GameBots: In this robotics class, students will design, build, and program their own robotic games. From pinball machines to interactive challenges, kids will test, play, and even compete with classmates while exploring coding, engineering, and teamwork.
