Activities
Coding with KUBO (Grades PK-2)
Students meet KUBO and learn how to operate it, understanding the basics of coding through TagTiles, which includes directions and functions. Students navigate KUBO through various mats and environments, solving challenges and puzzles along the way.
Introduction to Coding with Vex 123 (Grades K-2)
Students program a robot! They use the robot's touch-sensitive buttons, physical coding cards or the VEX Coder, and learn about computer science and computational thinking. Through scaffolded programming methods, students create algorithms to navigate environments, solve puzzles and explore the engineering design process.
Coding with micro:bit (Grades 3-8)
Students get hands-on experience with coding and digital making by using this award-winning programmable device. They learn and use basic programming concepts through block-based coding to design and create various projects.
Introduction to Robotics with Ozobots (Grades 3-5)
Students explore coding basics through hands-on activities that guide pint-sized robots along colorful paths, providing a fun and educational experience. They build computational thinking skills through coding and solving various puzzles and challenges.
Introduction to Arduino and Electronics (Grades 8-12)
Students learn how to design and build their own circuits using different devices and sensors. Hands-on activities foster creativity and foundational skills in technology and engineering.
