Why we love it π It is never too early to start learning the mechanics of robotics! The MCLS Twin Rivers Branch is hosting a fantastic, hands-on free play session featuring their mTiny robots. Designed specifically for early childhood education, these incredibly cute robots teach young learners the fundamentals of coding without the need for a screen. We absolutely love tactile tech events for early learners because they turn complex computer science concepts into fun, physical puzzles that kids can touch and solve in the real world!
How this event aligns with iCode Princeton πβοΈ Physical robotics is the very first step toward advanced software engineering!
-
Tactile Algorithms: When a child programs an mTiny robot to move across a map, they are writing a physical algorithm. In our STEAM Junior Track, we tap into that exact same natural curiosity, transitioning early learners from physical coding toys into tactile robotics and visual block-coding!
-
Sequencing & Logic: To get a robot to its destination, a young coder has to plan the steps in the exact right order. We teach our students how to apply this exact same sequential logic to digital environments, ensuring they build a rock-solid foundation before moving on to text-based coding languages like Python and JavaScript.
Join the fun, then keep the momentum going at iCode ππ Program your first robot at the library, then bring that world-class curiosity to iCode Princeton where we teach you how to build the digital future!
