Jr. Engineering:Lego WeDo & Other Activities

Class size is limited.

 

LEGO® Education WeDo™ Robotics Kits

Students will create robotics projects per the Lego WeDo curriculum.  Each kit comes with the materials for 12 different projects.  Students will be paired up and assigned a kit and net-book computer to use.  The class is kept small to ensure plenty of one-on-one assistance for the students. 

LEGO® Education WeDo™ Concept

This new concept provides a fun and easy way of introducing students aged 7-11 to simple robotics. They build models of machines and animals; attach sensors and a motor that are plugged into the computer and configure behaviors using an intuitive, drag-and-drop software.

Other Activities
