Panda Programmer: Do you just teach Scratch for programming? What if my child learns Scratch, is there anything else she can study?

Hello Panda Programmer,
Have you announced dates yet for summer 2019? Also, what’s the deal with ukuleles and foreign language?? I thought this was primarily a coding camp?

I have a comment regarding Gaithersburg summer camps. My child recently participated in the Panda Programmer Gaithersburg summer camp. It was 5 intense half-days of coding. My child loved it! The instructor made the topic fun and interesting for the children, and actually taught 8 year old children programming. It was a great experience, and we are looking forward to doing another summer camp with Panda Programmer next year. Thanks Panda Programmer!

Hello Panda Programmer,
It seems like my son just wants to sit on the couch and play video games all the time! Does a child need to want to program in order to succeed in your classes?

Hello,
It is my understanding that MCPS does not teach computer programming to kids. At least not to elementary school aged kids. Is this true? Is Panda Programmer offering something that MCPS does not?

What ages can take programming classes at Panda Programmer? I have an 8 year old boy, and a 10 year old girl. They are very interested in computers.

I would like to have my kids learn coding. But I don’t have the time or the ability! Do you teach kids to code? If so, what level is the class? Introductory level?

Hello,
Do you offer programming classes to elementary school students?

Hi Panda Programmer
I see that you offer a variety of other activities for your summer camp. Do you have to choose only one activity or can my child choose to do more than one activity?
Thanks

Panda Programmer:
I heard that you will be offering a 1 week summer camp at Rachel Carson ES in the Kentlands (Gaithersbug) this summer. But what is the deal with the foreign language and musical components to this camp? Are they required of the campers? I love the idea of coding camp, but don’t understand the foreign language and music part…
