About This Activity
Explore engineering and programming concepts using the LEGO robotics platform. With the LEGO SPIKE Primes or LEGO Mindstorms EV3 kits, campers design and build robots to tackle various challenges. Campers program their bots using a block-based coding language to tackle various challenges, and interact with several different sensors such as “touch” sensors (buttons), color sensors, and ultrasonic sensors. Campers use the skills they learn throughout the session to complete mazes, traverse obstacles, and navigate various challenges by following the engineering design process: defining the problem, brainstorming, developing, testing, and repeating until it works! No experience required, this camp is for entry-level and intermediate LEGO roboteers ages 9-12.
