LEGO Robotics with Mindstorms

Explore the exciting world of Robotics! Working in small teams, learn how to design and build a robot using LEGO® MINDSTORMS®. Program your robot to perform project-oriented tasks and challenges. For novices, start with the basics of construction and programming. For the more experienced, develop sophisticated programming and engineering skills. No prior experience with LEGO® Mindstorms necessary. All skill levels welcome.

LEGO Robotics with Mindstorms is an incredibly exciting and innovative summer camp program offered by Fleming Tech Camps. This program is an excellent opportunity for children to learn about robotics, programming, and engineering while having fun and being creative. Through hands-on activities and interactive learning, campers will develop an understanding of the mechanics of building and programming robots using LEGO blocks. One of the key objectives of the LEGO Robotics with Mindstorms summer camp is to teach campers how to construct interactive robots. This is an excellent way to foster creativity and imagination while developing fine motor skills and spatial awareness. By constructing robots, campers will learn the fundamentals of engineering, including the use of gears, levers, and pulleys. This program also encourages problem-solving skills, as campers will have to figure out how to overcome obstacles and design robots that can complete tasks. Another essential objective of the LEGO Robotics with Mindstorms program is to teach campers how to program using a “block” coding system powered by Lego’s Mindstorms. The block coding system is a user-friendly interface that enables campers to program their robots to perform specific tasks. The simplicity of this system makes it easy for campers to learn the basics of programming while having fun building and programming their robots. Using the programming and engineering skills learned in class, campers will write code and build robots to complete interactive tasks. This is a fun and engaging way to learn about programming and engineering, as campers get to see the results of their efforts immediately. The tasks given to the campers range from obstacle courses to solving puzzles, and they will learn how to use sensors to detect light, color, and sound. The LEGO Robotics with Mindstorms program is an excellent way to help children learn to solve problems using code. By teaching campers how to program robots, they will learn how to approach problems systematically, breaking them down into smaller, more manageable tasks. This program encourages critical thinking, creativity, and experimentation. In conclusion, the LEGO Robotics with Mindstorms summer camp program is an excellent opportunity for children to learn about programming, engineering, and robotics in a fun and engaging way. With hands-on activities and interactive learning, campers will develop valuable skills that will help them excel in school and beyond. By the end of the program, campers will have a strong understanding of the mechanics of building and programming robots and be equipped with the problem-solving skills to tackle challenges in their future.
