A week-long camp to develop strong building and programming skills essential for the FIRST LEGO League program.

Location: Jewish Community High School
Cost: $350
Recommended Ages: Rising 6th - 8th Graders
Simulated Tournament: SUPERPOWERED Robot Game (2022)
Four-day EV3/FIRST LEGO League camp develops strong building and programming skills essential for the FIRST LEGO League program for students 9 to 14 years old. The previous year's FIRST LEGO League game (SUPERPOWERED) is used as a challenge to provide a fun activity while the students are learning.
Students will be provided with a solid foundation in programming with the EV3 programming language. The class will largely be self-paced, with each group of students working to develop an understanding of the system and ultimately competing in a simulated FLL challenge by the end of the week. Experienced FLL students will have the opportunity to work deeper and develop a stronger set of problem-solving skills. The camp will be maxed at 12 students to allow a high degree of individualized experimentation and learning.
All camps are taught by experienced instructor, John Hagen, who has been working with FLL Robotics Competitions since 2007.

Discover a powerful lineage of Jewish women who challenged norms, claimed their voices, and redefined what it means to lead with courage.
Together we’ll peer into the bold, complex, and often subversive ways Jewish women across time have resisted, reshaped, and reimagined the worlds they inherited. From the biblical courage of Ruth, the moral tenacity of Judith, and the defiance of Vashti, to the modern-day boundary-breakers Ruth Bader Ginsburg, Bella Abzug, and Barbra Streisand, we will trace a heritage of resistance that is spiritual, political, and deeply personal. Through text study and discussion, we'll consider what it means to challenge authority, live as a heroine, and act with audacity and as well as how these stories might inform our lives today.
Rabbi Batshir Torchio is a ritual and spiritual practitioner who has been engaging with folks for lifecycle events and learning. She was ordained at AJRCA in Los Angeles, where she learned with rabbis and scholars from across the broad spectrum of Jewish movements. Batshir is moved by the translation and ownership of ancient ritual into contemporary meaning; to “make the old new, and the new, holy.” (Rav Kook) In addition to her role as Senior Jewish Educator at the Jewish Community Center of San Francisco, Batshir also guides tours through Israel and Poland, and is a life-cycle officiant, both locally and abroad.
