We’re excited to add this class to our fall 2009 schedule. LEGO® Education WeDo™ is a new robotics concept that has recently been released. This class will provide a great opportunity for kids to get an introduction to simple robotics with this concept.
In this class, kids will build LEGO® models of machines and animals. Then, students will learn to attach sensors and motors that are plugged into a computer, and configure their models’ behaviours to walk, make sounds and respond to commands using a simple programming tool.
The activity pack that will be used throughout our sessions is divided into four themes that will each introduce the students to new engineering and basic programming concepts. Students will work in pairs.
