Activities

In Cardboard Arcade students will learn about the engineering process as they build arcade-like games using cardboard boxes and other recycled materials.  Cardboard Arcade is inspired by 9 year old Caine Monroy who built an entire arcade using cardboard boxes.  This club is designed for 2nd grade.

What is coding? Coding is the process of using a programming language to get a computer to behave the way you want it to. Every line of code tells the computer to do something. This Club is designed for grades 3-5.
