​Girls On the Run

Over the course of the 10-week program (mid-February to mid-May), 3rd-5th grade girls will have fun, make friends, increase their physical activity and learn important life skills that they can use at home, at school and with friends. 

Meeting twice a week in small teams, trained and caring coaches lead girls through interactive lessons designed to help girls improve in competence, confidence, caring, character, connection, and contribution.

​Program registration opens in January.

Join us for a whole new school year of BRAND NEW art projects! Let's get messy and make time for creativity! While Firefly Art has always taught drawing skills, with a variety of art media, we do more than that! We teach our students to draw as a secondary means of communication, relish in the creative process, and design creative solutions when "mistakes" happen. This year, we've got more paintbrush action, more sticky glue crafts, and more local artist spotlights coming your way!

Serving Grades 1-6.

It's time to code our CritterBots! First, students will build a project from LEGO WeDO 2.0 and attach a Bluetooth motor. Then, using block coding, they'll program their LEGO project to move, tilt, wobble, and shake! The next week, they'll come back to their build, but level up to Scratch, where they'll simultaneously be coding their physical project AND an animation on their laptop. Throughout the course, they'll code 5 builds and corresponding Scratch projects and at the end, they'll take home a USB with their Scratch projects, that can be continued at home (if you want to!) This course will be the ultimate blend of robotics and coding. 

Serving grades 3-6
