Below is an announcement from the Wilmington Recreation Department:

WILMINGTON, MA — Don’t miss out on one of our popular summer programs that everyone is nuts and bolts about!

CIRCUIT LAB

Entering Grades: 1 – 3
Monday – Friday, July 28 – August 1
Wilmington High School (Room 1-060)
$210 each session

Register by: 7/24; 12 p.m.

CIRCUIT MAKERS 101 | 9 – 11 a.m.

Let’s get creative with electricity! In this junior hands-on electronics class, students will gain experience with creating their own electronics; designing custom light-up greeting cards, electric games, mazes, and even musical instruments. Each day consists of a circuitry lesson and a hands-on electronics project, using components like lights, buzzers, switches, motors, and sensors. Circuit Lab staff will make sure participants create a project that they can be proud of each day!

ROBOT COMMANDERS 101 | 11:30 – 2:30 p.m.

Understanding how software can interact with robots is a key skill for the STEM jobs of tomorrow. In this class, students will learn about what it means to write, debug, and execute computer programs that communicate with different robotic devices through several active and playful activities. Using the power of code, students will turn Sphero SPRK+ robots into Magic 8 Balls, automated Red Light/Green Light games, and the arcade classic, Pong – and Unruly Splats will become our voting machines, relay races, guessing games, and more!

**Students participating in both programs will be supervised during lunch break.**
