Robotics Camps
Each summer, the Robo Raiders offer half day, week-long camps for students entering 2nd-9th grades. We use Lego robot kits to teach the basics of programming, core values, problem solving, and provide students with a FIRST® Robotics themed challenge to showcase at the end of the week.
Available Sessions:
AM 9:00-11:30 $50 per student
PM 1:00-3:30 $50 per student
Intro to Robotics
For students entering 2nd - 4th grades, 6-12 students
All materials provided
Using the WeDo Robotics kit, students will work with a partner to begin exploration of STEM concepts. Projects include building LEGO models and programming simple code. We will finish the week by building a LEGO model to showcase their accomplishments.
Robotics I
For students entering 4th-8th grade with no prior FLL experience, 8-16 students
All materials provided
Students will work with a partner as they use LEGO Spike Prime robots to explore STEM concepts, program mission tasks, and learn about using motors and sensors. They will finish off the week by conquering an original FIRST® Flashback game challenge using models from past FLL seasons.
Robotics 2
For 5th-9th grade students with FLL experience helpful but not required, 4-10 students.
This class helps prepare students to start FLL teams.
Student pairs will use a laptop and Lego SPIKE Prime robot kits to build, program, and complete challenges. Bringing your own SPIKE Prime robot/laptop is welcomed if possible.
Gain greater insights into SPIKE Prime programming techniques; develop sensor, attachment and robot building, and strategy skills. Tackle the FLL Masterpiece game challenge in a new way!
Camp Auditing
Coaches/parents/mentors may audit any session. Chaperones are free with prior approval.
