Practice and persist — iterate when the build or code does not work the first time.
Sep 17 – Oct 08, 2026
Thursday · 7:30 PM – 8:30 PM
Building and programming rarely succeed on the first try. This sprint builds persistence: adjust hardware, change the program, and test again.
Character focus this sprint
We intentionally practice Practice, Persistence alongside every coding and robotics skill.
In four weekly sessions, your child will
- Improve a build or program over four weekly sessions
- Debug calmly when motion or sensors surprise the team
- Stay with a challenge longer with coach support
- Cheer for smart iteration as well as perfect runs
Why Bot Builders
Persistence is how builders become engineers. Students learn that practice and calm retries turn “it broke” into “we fixed it.”
Right for 3rd–5th
Build, program, test, and iterate as a team. Coaches coach the process — not just the finished robot. Wins include both the build and how the team got there.

More than a tech class
Love to Code Academy is a character development academy. Every session, students practice teamwork, persistence, and ownership — not just skills. Small classes. Real tools. Coaches who know your child by name.
One sprint = four instructional sessions. Weeks that contain New Year’s Day, Memorial Day, Independence Day, Labor Day, Thanksgiving, or Christmas are skipped for all classes — the sprint extends to the next available week.
