Lext Robo Academy - Agoura Hills

This program will engage students in investigating and understanding the operation of simple machines such as gears, wheels and axles, levers, and pulleys to introduce kids to science and engineering concepts. They will build pinwheels, spinning tops, car launchers, hockey players, and other projects while exploring motion, energy, stability, forces and friction concepts. Lego Coding Express is a creative, intuitive and versatile solution that introduces preschoolers to early coding concepts that naturally sparks their curiosity, creativity and desire to explore and learn together. Based on the ever popular train theme, the highly versatile LEGO DUPLO solution allows children to make connections and intuitively explore early coding conc-epts, such as sequencing, looping and conditional coding, while developing problem-solving skills , critical thinking, collaboration, and social and emotional skills.

Design and build your own robot. A separate theme per week (dinosaurs, cities, space, etc.) that does not repeat each week. LEGO Education WeDo 2.0 is an introductory invention kit you can use to build interactive robots and other creations. You can snap together Scratch programming blocks to interact with your WeDo 2.0 creations and add animations and sounds.

This program is designed to engage elementary school students in science, engineering, robotics, and coding. Students will build and program autonomous robots with the new SPIKE Prime LEGO set. Each student will have a Lego SPIKE set with over 500 pieces and a programming device. They will learn how to program the robot to move around and solve several daily challenges. Using Scratch block coding, students will also experiment with building and programming arms to collect, transport, lift, and deposit. This program will promote critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Computer science has changed the world as we know it, and it will continue to have a profound on our lives for future generations. As a result, children must learn the basics of computer science from an early age to generate the technological advancements that align with society’s needs. In this course, students will learn programming fundamentals through SPIKE, Lego’s newest Mindstorms® product. Not only will this serve as an introduction to programming, but it will adequately prepare students for First Lego League, an international Lego robotics competition.
