Brainy Bots Club: Coding & Robotics STEAM Enrichment

Month 1 at Brainy Bots: What is Coding? 💻

This month, our students learned that coding is all about giving clear instructions, putting steps in the correct order, and using commands to make something happen!

Throughout the month, our Brainy Bots:

* Practiced creating and following sequences using directional coding cards
* Programmed robots to move along different paths
* Used tablets and coding apps to control robots and complete challenges
* Explored cause and effect through hands-on robotics
* Built and engineered their own creations
* Worked through puzzles and challenges that encouraged problem-solving, creativity, and critical thinking

Our goal during Month 1 was to help students understand that coding is simply communicating instructions in a way a computer or robot can understand. Even our youngest coders were able to begin learning these concepts through play, movement, building, and hands-on exploration.

We’re so excited to keep building on these skills throughout the year! 💚🤖

Year-round smiles!!

As we head into our final week of summer programming, we’re so grateful for all of the amazing students, families, and community partners who made this summer one to remember!

From our weekly partnerships with Newtown Connection, Discovery Point Twelve Oaks, and Wee World to the MANY in-house STEM field trips we were honored to lead, it’s been a summer filled with curiosity and countless smiles.

We can’t wait to finish summer strong and kick off another school year of Brainy Bots! ❤️🤖

We 💙 Newtown Connection!! Thank you for an AMAZING summer.

As we enter the final week of our summer program, we're taking a look at what has made this summer so meaningful for our members.💚

Thanks to our supporters, this summer became far more than just a school break for the kids we serve through our partnership with Boys & Girls Clubs of Sarasota and DeSoto Counties. This summer was one of learning new skills, building confidence, making lifelong friendships, and discovering new passions. Every program, activity, and experience helped create opportunities for growth while making the summer both meaningful and fun. ⚾️ 🔬 🤖

Your generosity provided more than a program; it provided hope, encouragement, stability, and opportunity during a critical time in these young lives.

On behalf of Newtown Connection – THANK YOU! 🩵

We can’t believe the 2026-2027 school year is almost here!

In just over a month, we’ll be back on campus with our incredible returning school partners while also welcoming several new schools to the Brainy Bots family!

As we finalize this year’s schedule, we’re looking forward to another year of coding, robotics, hands-on STEAM activities, and lots of smiling faces.

Here’s to another year of inspiring young innovators! 🤖💙
