Dear Parents and Guardians,
We’re excited to welcome your child to Robo Dojo, our one-week stem and robotics camp filled with hands-on learning, creativity, and innovation! As we prepare for a fun and productive week, we have a few important pieces of information to share:
✅ Snacks and Lunch
We’ll be providing healthy snacks like fruit, but please make sure your child brings a packed lunch each day. We want to keep everyone fueled and focused!
✅ Devices
Our goal is to give students the opportunity to code their robots and bring them to life. To do this, it will be helpful for the kids to bring in a device for them to use such as an ipad or a laptop. We have a few extra devices but it will be a better experience if the students are able to program on their own device.
✅ Download the LEGO® Spike App
Our camp will be using the SPIKE LEGO EDUCATION app for programming and building activities. We kindly ask that you download and install the app in advance on the device your child will be using, if applicable. We will provide the Spike Prime Lego Robotics kits for the kids to use.
You can find the app here: https://education.lego.com/en-us/downloads/spike-app or by searching “Lego Spike Prime” on the apple or google app store. It’s free to download.
✅ Tech Help Drop-In:
If you’d like to test the app on our robotics kit or need any technical help, we’re offering a Tech Help Drop-In:
- Wednesday 7/30, 5–6 PM
- Starbucks at Serramonte Mall Parking Lot (Next to Chick-Fil-A)
10 Serramonte Center, Daly City, CA 94015
✅ Instructional Materials:
We are in the process of building out our website. Camp learning materials and highlight videos will be posted at robodojostemacademy.org Look for the link: ROBOT CAFE STEM CAMP (8/3-8/8) MATERIALS and INFO
✅ Dropoff / Pickup
Each day, please have the parent or guardian sign the child in for drop off. On the first day, we will introduce you to their instructor. For security purposes, only authorized adults may pick up the child. Please provide ID for each pickup to sign them out.
✅ ROBOT CAFÉ OPEN HOUSE
Come join us on Friday at 2:30-3:15 for our robot café open house. Here, the students will be using their robot creations to provide the parents with a café experience. Students will also be practicing their presentation skills by explaining what they learned.
⚠️ Change in Plans? Let Us Know
If your circumstances have changed and your child is no longer able to attend Robo Dojo, please let us know as soon as possible. We have a waiting list of enthusiastic students who would love the opportunity to join.
Best regards,
Anthony Relator
