Join us for an introduction to screen-free coding with Sphero Indi, a car-shaped robot. Campers will use color tiles to program the robots to create patterns, loops, stories, and maps. Campers will also learn how to reprogram the color tiles' actions and code Indi to sing a song.

Do you want to build a robot? Do you want to make it move? Build robots, meet robots and learn about what automated systems we rely on every day.

A great introduction to game logic, layout, design, and play, play, play! Maybe the most fun and innovative camps of the summer. Perennially, our most popular camp over the past 10 years. Direct from the laboratories at MIT, with Scratch students design and compose their own world and gaming environments, and then use Scratch visual coding to create their own interactive stories, games, and animations.

Visual, “block” based programming has arrived, and in this experience campers will be able to get a simple app up and running on their iPhone or Android mobile devices within 30-60 minutes of their first camp experience. But don’t let the quick start fool you – MIT’s ingenious App Inventor supports the creation of complex, high-impact apps. This block-based visual programming environment combines sophisticated logic with a great visual environment easing young learners into application development.

Kids learn about archaeology and the techniques scientists use to excavate long lost cities! They discover ancient civilizations and the tools and artifacts they used in everyday life! They also study bone fragments, pottery shards, amber deposits, and fossils to understand what they can tell us about history! What’s more, each class includes a make and take-home project, like a fossil reproduction, an amber time capsule, and coins from around the world!

Ever dreamed of becoming a secret agent? We'll start with the basics: From decoding messages to metal detectors and night vision, campers have the opportunity to check out spy tech equipment and take home lots of gadgets like spy glasses! Step into the shoes of a detective as you uncover the science involved in evidence gathering and analysis! Figure out the science of forensics in a hands-on look at crime scenes! Become a super spy and learn clever ways of performing tasks as we take a hands-on investigation of the science that spies use!

If you like Lego, you will LOVE this class! Join other brickheads in building and designing Lego creations that revolve around themes and teach strategy, flexibility, and creative thinking-skills that parents and children never knew plastic pieces could provide. TONS of bricks will be provided, as well as instruction booklets (sometimes) as students build their own fun. Daily books, projects, and building will lead to a remarkable week.

Unleash your creativity and engineering skills in our exciting LEGO Robotics Summer Camp! Students will dive into the world of robotics as they build and program their own LEGO creations. Through fun, hands-on challenges, participants will learn key STEM concepts, problem-solving techniques, and teamwork n an engaging and supportive environment. Whether you're a budding engineer or a curious beginner, this camp promises a week full of innovation, exploration, and fun! No prior experience required-just bring your imagination!

Each Lutheran High School camp will meet the following objectives: The Gospel of Jesus Christ will be shared with each participant. Positive sportsmanship/citizenship and healthy attitudes will be taught to each participant. Individual and/or group (team) skills will be demonstrated to and practiced by each participant. Drills and exercises to promote future skill development and proper conditioning will be shared with each participant.

Ready for take-off? Prepare for an exhilarating journey into the science of aerodynamics and drones with Lift Off! Flightand Aerodynamics delves into the history of flyingmachines, abstract physics concepts, and scientificinquiry,while students design rockets and hot air balloons. The hands-on Drone program engages students in aeronauticaladventures, teaching flight, navigation, and coding with age-appropriate techniques. Through creative challenges,students develop critical thinking as they pilot their drones,igniting a passion for STEM. Most excitingly, they take their Voyage Aeronautics Drone home after the course!
