Introductory Robotics - Advanced , Spring Session, (Gr. 3-6) | Kids Out and About Fairfield County, CT

Introductory Robotics - Advanced , Spring Session, (Gr. 3-6)

Based on the framework of the First Lego League competition, the most popular youth robotic competition in the world, students will build robots that incorporate physics and mathematics concepts such as simple machines, forces and motion, geometry and data collection into the robotic design and implementation.

Please help us keep this calendar up to date! If this activity is sold out, canceled, or otherwise needs alteration, email mindy@kidsoutandabout.com so we can update it immediately. If you have a question about the activity itself, please contact the organization administrator listed below.

Under the guidance of a certified First Lego League coach, they will build the robot with sensors and code it with algorithms while working on their chosen project in a small group. In the last class, the students will be given an opportunity to make a presentation on a project they have done during the class and present the data collected by the robot in that project to the class and draw conclusions about what they have learned.

This session is focused on Motorization.

Students can take home the presentation they make, and parents will be invited to the presentation class. Recommended for students in 4th-6th grade. Class photos will be delivered to parents. Students from the “Introductory Robotics, Beginner” class will be ready to take this Advanced class, but prior robotic experience is not required. Different levels of projects will be provided to suit students’ learning curve. Class duration is 8 weeks. Your student will have the chance to be scouted to join our FLL robotic competition team. One scholarship spot is available for Neurodiverse children and students in the school's free-lunch program.
