Class Overview:
Over two action-packed days, students will use LEGO® Spike Essential and Prime to solve fun challenges, build robots, and develop essential STEM skills through hands-on learning and teamwork.
What to bring:
Please pack a nut-free snack, lunch, and water bottle.
We’ll have multiple breaks throughout the day, including opportunities to step outside and enjoy the adjacent outdoor space.
Workshop Highlights:
Programming skills: They'll develop essential coding skills by programming robots to solve engaging, real-world challenges.
Creative problem-solving: Challenges will enhance their ability to think critically and find innovative solutions.
Team collaboration: Students will strengthen teamwork and communication as they work together to build and refine their robotic designs.
Engineering design principles: They'll apply engineering principles to construct, test, and evaluate robotics solutions.
