Hour of Code

Every year code.org hosts an Hour of Code. This is an international event intended to give every child access to programming education.

We live in a world surrounded by technology. And we know that whatever field our students choose to go into as adults, their ability to succeed will increasingly depend on understanding how technology works.

At Los Alamos STEAM Lab we believe in this mission and that’s while we’ll be celebrating Hour of Code next week by offering our drop-in hours for free all week and hosting a variety of programming related activities. We’ll have something for everyone, from Pre-K all the way through Adult. Students can program a dance party, solve puzzles in minecraft, use color codes to have ozobot navigate a maze, or take Dash on a road trip.

Our Drop-In hours are:
Monday: 4- 6pm
Tuesday: 9 – 12pm, 4 – 6pm
Wednesday: 1 – 4pm
Thursday: 9 – 12pm, 4 – 6pm
Saturday: 10 – 1pm
