Lego Robotics

Build it. Code it. Animate it.

Students master robotics with LEGO, building, coding, and animating their own creations.

What students do

Every session is hands-on and project-based. Students collaborate with a vetted teaching artist, work through structured challenges, and leave with something they made — a model, a recording, a portfolio piece, a finished dish, or a performance.

Who it's for: Students curious about Lego Robotics who learn best by building, making, and doing.

What's inside

  • Hands-on labs and engineering challenges
  • Data collection and observation
  • Design–build–test loop
  • A capstone project to present

Session-by-session breakdown

  1. Week 1

    Discover

    Tour the tools and vocabulary of Lego Robotics. Run a guided starter challenge to see the discipline in action.

  2. Week 2

    Core Concepts

    Hands-on labs that isolate the science behind Lego Robotics — variables, observation, and a written hypothesis.

  3. Week 3

    Build

    Students design and build their first original Lego Robotics project from a real-world prompt.

  4. Week 4

    Test & Iterate

    Collect data, troubleshoot what failed, and engineer a v2 of the build.

  5. Week 5

    Stretch Challenge

    An open-ended Lego Robotics challenge that combines every skill from the season.

  6. Week 6

    Demo Day

    Students present their project, walk through their process, and field questions from peers and family.

Outcomes students leave with

  • Confidence and vocabulary in Lego Robotics
  • A finished project to share
  • Habits of collaboration, iteration, and reflection
