Engineering for Kids

Schedule: On Thursdays from 5:30 PM to 6:30 PM

Students will build and program a variety of robotic projects with Lego WeDo Robots. Teamwork and collaboration are essential to engineers; this will give students ideas for how to fairly take turns and how to encourage teammates, as they work together to use gears and axles, and program motors and sensors to solve realistic problems. Students will follow diagram directions and program with drag-and-drop software on a laptop computer. As time allows, students will have the chance to improve their builds and programs.

Students will build a goal kicker, a goalkeeper, and cheerful fans. They also learn how to program and operate their creations using a laptop computer.
