Program: We will use Lego Mindstorm’s robot building kits to learn about robots. Each student begins by following a plan in assembling, programming and debugging their robot. They will learn about touch and light sensors, motors and gears with much problem solving in the process. Once familiar with the ‘bot’, they can change it—make it better or build a new one. We usually end with a Sumo contest or another challenge. It is a fun time.
Fee: $95.00
