About this event
With the help of the incredible LEGO SPIKE Essential kits, students can experience the wonder of their first robotics course. During each lesson, students will be challenged to build a new robotic gadget or gizmo to solve a problem through exciting, story-based challenges. Then, they can learn the ins-and-outs of coding to operate their robot creations and complete the challenge. Each build will require the use of teams, helping children to learn additional collaborative and cooperative skills to go along with their newfound expertise as robot engineers. But it’s not all 1’s and 0’s – students will also have the freedom to design and customize their projects so each build becomes a reflection of their personality. Interspersed with the LEGO robotics lessons, students will take flight during special Tello drone lessons. During these lessons, students will explore the relationship between robotics and drones, and practice drone flight with obstacle courses, flight challenges and scavenger hunts.
