FLL Club
It is going to be a unique robotics and engineering experience built around the latest LEGO® Education SPIKETM Prime kit. Combining colorful LEGO building elements, easy-to-use hardware, and an intuitive drag-and-drop coding language based on Scratch, this camp engages students through STEM-focused, playful learning activities and helps improve their critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
Course
Details
LEGO® Education SPIKE™ Essential gets primary school students excited about hands-on STEAM learning. This playful, narrative-based learning experience is part of the LEGO Learning System and encourages students to investigate STEAM concepts while contributing to literacy, math, and social-emotional development.
The unique combination of the LEGO brick, classroom-friendly software, and inspiring, standards-based science projects results in a resource that builds students’ confidence. Empower them to ask the right questions, define problems, and design their solutions by putting scientific discovery in their hands.
The curriculum is designed for students and covers many foundational computer science and engineering skills that are not often taught in early childhood. These academic frameworks are taught through a series of powerful ideas: the Engineering Design Process, Robotics, Programming, and Sensors. Each Idea addresses foundational math, literacy, science, and art skills.
-
Develop computational thinking skills, including creating and modifying sequences, testing, debugging, and using loops.
-
Explore the engineering design process, including defining a problem, brainstorming solutions, and testing and refining prototypes.
-
Investigate the scientific concepts of energy, energy transfer, and collision.
-
STEM-based curriculum on the idea of educating students in four specific disciplines — science, technology, engineering, and mathematics
-
The camp curriculum is designed for beginner to advanced-level
-
Hands-on experimental and exploratory study
-
kids will learn strategies for “Critical Thinking, Lateral Thinking, Problem-solving, Designing Projects, and Communicating Ideas”
-
They will discover basic physical science concepts such as gears, pulleys, levers, wheels, and axles
-
Students will be assigned projects according to their grades and skills.
-
At the beginning of the week, teachers will evaluate students' prior experiences (if they have any) as teachers will plan the week's curriculum and assign levels accordingly.
-
At the end of the week, teams will have Robot battles competitions.
