Code Camp

All our camps are held at our sweet coding facility that provides a uniquely collaborative environment where kids work and code together, and have a rockin' fun summer together! We have camps for coders of all skill levels grouped by age. From our beginner-friendly "Game Dev" series for younger coders to our camps featuring Python, website technologies or even artificial intelligence concepts for our more experienced campers, we have something for everyone.

• All camps are 9 am-3 pm at our Coder School Berkeley location at 1385 Shattuck Avenue, Suite C (across the street from the CVS parking lot)
• Be sure to check skill and age requirements for each camp, as different topics are taught at different levels.
• After Care is available from 3 pm to 6 pm for an additional $180.
  
• All kids should bring their own water bottle and lunch daily, as they will be escorted to Live Oak Park for lunch.
• Summer Camps will include a daily hour of outdoor team-building activities (Mon-Thu) led by X-Fit Training of El Cerrito. Before lunch, we'll head over to Live Oak Park for some fun, active, cooperative games. We're happy to be partnering with X-Fit to promote an active and healthy lifestyle for all our campers.
  
• Kids code throughout the week and get an awesome (included) lunch on Friday, then demo their week's creations later that afternoon.

Camp Descriptions

• Game Dev (Ages 7-10): We'll be using the cool drag n' drop language Scratch to create some awesome new and classic games! Aimed at our newbie and novice coders. Content will be different in Session A and Session B.
• Girls Are Awesome (Ages 7-10): Getting girls involved in tech at an early age is needed to close the gender gap in tech so this camp is for girls only. Girls will use Scratch to build games, art and animation to explore coding in a fun, supportive & friendly environment.
• WebRox (Ages 9+): Everything's about the web these days, and that's why Web Rocks! Code with all the base web technologies like HTML/CSS and Javascript, learn how the internet and file transfers work, and get your pages uploaded to our servers for public viewing! Novice or intermediate coders.
• Python Startup (Ages 10+): We don't have a pet snake for our schools, so we'll settle for introducing you to Python, one of the most popular coding languages today. Start slowly or code fast, this camp is for our intermediate coders – no Python experience necessary!
• Roblox Remix (Ages 9+): Using the Lua coding language, learn to make real games on the popular Roblox platform. Campers will use their creativity to build their own game that they can publish and allow the world to play! Windows/MacOS computer required.
• Rise of the Machines (Ages 10+): Artificial Intelligence (AI) is one of the hottest buzzwords today, and we're ready to help you tackle it. What is AI? Why is it taking over the world? When will the Terminator come back and take down John Connor?? We'll talk about AI use cases, dive into some fundamental algorithms and create some basic AI apps
• Python for Girls (Ages 10+): Getting girls involved in tech at an early age is needed to close the gender gap in tech so this Python camp is for girls only. We'll introduce girls to Python, one of the most popular coding languages today, in a fun, supportive & friendly environment.
