SUMMARY:CoderDojo with StarLabs
DESCRIPTION:CoderDojo is a free program for kids from kindergarten to 5th grade.\n\nChildren can freely explore any STEM (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, & Mathematics) themed stations\, with mentors available to help them get started\, allowing your child to learn and explore on their own. \nThe Star Lab Planetarium with Heidi from Curiosity Path  \nThe StarLab planetarium experience includes pre-programmed movies and demonstrations on a variety of space topics. The dome can fit up to 30 people\, a combination of adults and children. Participants are expected to sit cross-legged on the floor. The dome can accommodate participants with walkers\, wheelchairs\, and regular chairs. \nHands-On Stations:\n\nHour of Code: Engage in self-guided activities tailored to your coding comfort level. Activities include Scratch Block Programming\, which allows you to easily build stories and games using “blocks” of code. You can also play Codecombat\, an innovative live coding strategy game for beginners. Learn Python or JavaScript as you defeat ogres\, solve mazes\, and level up.\nTuring Tumble: a logic puzzle where students work to solve problems using levers and marbles. It helps kids understand computer science concepts without computers! Create your own designs or work through the ‘challenge’ booklet for a little more structure to the play\nSnap Circuits: Learn basic engineering\, electronics\, and circuitry concepts using Snap Circuits! Snap Circuits use easy-to-connect components to assemble electronic circuits on a simple “rows-and-columns” base grid that you build functions like the printed circuit boards in most electronic products.\nMicroscopes: Kids can explore biology up close with a self-guided microscope with over 200 slides.\nDrones: Kids can maneuver drones (with adult supervision) around obstacle courses.\n\n  \nIf you will need disability-related accommodations in order to participate in this event\, please contact Community Programs Manager Melissa Silver at 319-214-5646 or melissa@newbo.co.

SUMMARY:Emergency Preparedness for Small Business and Organizations
DESCRIPTION:Unexpected disasters can strike any business\, and 40% of businesses never reopen afterward. This workshop will give you the practical tools and strategies you need to protect your operations. Through three critical phases you’ll learn how to assess risks\, manage crises\, maintain business continuity\, and rebuild stronger than before. \nThis event is hosted by America’s SBDC and NewBoCo.

SUMMARY:CoderDojo: Propagation with Community Partners
DESCRIPTION:CoderDojo is a free program for kids from kindergarten to 5th grade.\n\nChildren can freely explore any STEM (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, & Mathematics) themed stations\, with mentors available to help them get started\, allowing your child to learn and explore on their own. \nAt this month’s CoderDojo we welcome ISU Extension & Outreach Linn County Master Gardner. \nStudents will focus on understanding another way to propagate plants by planting rooted cuttings into little pots with dirt. Students will be able to take a plant with them after the event.  \nHands-On Stations:\n\nHour of Code: Engage in self-guided activities tailored to your coding comfort level. Activities include Scratch Block Programming\, which allows you to easily build stories and games using “blocks” of code. You can also play Codecombat\, an innovative live coding strategy game for beginners. Learn Python or JavaScript as you defeat ogres\, solve mazes\, and level up.\nTuring Tumble: a logic puzzle where students work to solve problems using levers and marbles. It helps kids understand computer science concepts without computers! Create your own designs or work through the ‘challenge’ booklet for a little more structure to the play\nSnap Circuits: Learn basic engineering\, electronics\, and circuitry concepts using Snap Circuits!

SUMMARY:CoderDojo - Plant Life with Community Partners
DESCRIPTION:CoderDojo is a free program for kids from kindergarten to 5th grade.\n\nChildren can freely explore any STEM (Science\, Technology\, Engineering\, & Mathematics) themed stations\, with mentors available to help them get started\, allowing your child to learn and explore on their own. \nAt this CoderDojo we welcome ISU Extension & Outreach Linn County Master Gardners & 4H. \nStudents will get a chance to take a guess at what certain seeds will become once they grow fully. We will also be dissecting seeds to understand what they look like inside. Our final project will be contructing a birdfeeder (with seeds) out of a pinecone that students can take with them. \nHands-On Stations:\n\nHour of Code: Engage in self-guided activities tailored to your coding comfort level.
