With AI tools now able to write code in seconds, many parents wonder whether it’s still worth having their kids learn programming in the age of AI. We believe it matters more than ever. Learning languages like Scratch and Python isn’t really about memorizing commands; it’s about learning how to think. Coding teaches children to break big problems into small steps, spot patterns, test their ideas, and figure out what went wrong when something doesn’t work. These are exactly the skills kids will need to use AI well: knowing what to ask for, recognizing when an answer doesn’t make sense, and understanding how things fit together. A child who has built and fixed their own programs is ready to be a creator and a critical thinker, not just a user of technology.

That’s why we’re starting with Scratch, the ideal first step for students in grades 4 to 6. Developed at MIT, Scratch lets kids snap together colorful code blocks to create their own games, animations, and interactive stories, so they can focus on ideas and logic without getting stuck on typing or syntax. Along the way, they learn real programming concepts like loops, conditions, variables, and events, all while having fun and expressing their creativity. Just as valuable, they experience the satisfaction of tackling a tricky bug and finally making their project work, which builds persistence and confidence. Scratch gives young learners a strong foundation that makes moving on to languages like Python a natural next step when they’re ready.

Supplemental Programs

Recreational Engineering Marathon (SCREEM)
SCREEM

For the first time in Boston! FREE Engineering event for students in grades 6-11.
Engineering tasks that require NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE.

The engineering challenges included making scotch tape buckets, pencil bridges, ping-pong ball towers, and many more.

The event was run by Sigma Camp

This was a team event. Teams partook in a set of mini-engineering challenges. The best engineers in each challenge category received prizes.

Here is what our parents say:

“We are impressed by how quickly and smoothly you brought the class to an online format. It is working very well.”

“This is fantastic, thank you so much for the clear instructions and organization – especially given the total lack of anything from our regular schools!!”

“Thank you for all the work you’re doing!!! It’s really amazing. The zoom classes were very good this month. I am very grateful for your efforts.”

“I wanted to take a minute to thank you for what an amazing job the Studio and the teachers have done to get classes up and running in this new online format. I am so impressed by the level of communication from the administration, by the quick access to information, and the dedication to continuing to hold high quality instruction. This was no easy feat. The teachers are doing a wonderful job managing the online classes and it is clear that the students are continuing to learn in an otherwise challenging time.”

“I just want to drop you a note to let you know that among all the online classes my daughter attended, she had the most fun today. I know how challenging it must be to transfer an off-line class into an online one in such a short time. I appreciate the time and efforts you have spent!”
