INTRO TO CODING FOR TEENS
(Ages 12 - 17) - HALF DAY PROGRAM
Kids may have heard of Java programming language, which is different from JavaScript.
It may also be known that with programming you can create applications for both the
computer and mobile devices (particularly familiar may be mobile apps). If you have
seen Block programming languages (like Scratch) you may have used drag-and-drop programming
before. If you want to explore programming in a text-based way and expand upon your
previous knowledge, or just want to start to learn a programming language, definitely
sign up! Kids will explore computer science concepts through a high level programming
language: Processing. How do lines of code transform into an interactive, user-controlled
experience? What are some of the fundamentals of Computer Science? What can you do
with computer science? Find answers to these questions and more in this course.

(NOT SO) CRUEL SUMMER:
The Songs & Sensation of Taylor Swift (Ages 12-16)
Calling all Tortured Poets - Are You Ready For It?
Taylor Swift is the biggest star in the world right now, and for a very good reason:
her lyrics and her music. Whether you're a diehard Swiftie who knows her albums All
Too Well [10 Minute Version], a casual music fan, or someone who's just interested
in writing in general, join us for a creative writing-based deep dive of Miss Americana's
greatest hits and deepest cuts, analyzing the poetry behind just how she's written
some Eras-defining classics... and how you can start using some of those same techniques in your own writing! Bring a notebook
with plenty of Blank Space, as we listen to songs, watch her movies and music videos,
and maybe even make some friendship bracelets along the way. You'll remember these
days for evermore!
