Robotic coding summer camp for children with dyslexic
Hello,
Recently,(my child has shared with me..). -as i began to enroll my kid into summer enrichment programs-I found out that i robotics camps and Sarah science camp was not as successful for my kid. Although these programs are great and costly-they do not have the training or the conscious awareness that all children do not understand written or spoken instruction at the same speed as others. Hence, I am looking for coding, robotics and LEGO enginering summer program that is known to have extra support for children with dyslexia/APD. If you have any information-this parent as well as others-greatly appreciate the help!
warmly,
heartbroken summer camp blues

This may sound odd, but my daughter LOVED the Lego STEM camp at the Downtown Oakland YMCA. I'm uncertain the leaders have extra skills to support differences, but they are definitely capable of engaging a wide range of learners. My daughter has attention and sensory challenges, yet she was engaged and included with zero reports of issues during the day. It was the one camp she wanted to ensure she could do again this summer, so I planned the whole summer around it. She also went to several of their regular day camps and did well. When there were issues, the counselors communicated with us at drop-off/pick-up to understand how they could better support her to be successful during the day.
