This program will take you beyond the basic 5 senses with the help of 6-legged scientists! THE GRE AT TOY DISSEC TION with Science North Take your class on a trip through the history of computer programming, as we disassemble a real clockwork toy to see how it functions. Using gears inside, we'll explore coding concepts of loops and conditional logic, while learning about how a combination of code and gears run the modern world. Please allow 6 weeks to book session as materials need to be sent to schools.
