Grades 1-3 (WeDo 1.0, 2.0, NXT)
WeDo 1.0: Beginner Robotics for Grades 1 - 2
At Daedalos Academy, Introductory Robotic Systems introduces students to basic design and computer programing using mechanical and electronic parts including motors, gears and sensors integrated with LEGO® bricks. The curriculum covers STEM topics: science, technology, engineering, mathematics, as well as language arts learning outcomes. Although the course is designed for students Grades 1 to 2, mature Kindergartners are welcomed between January and June.
WeDo 2.0: Young Engineers for Grades 2 - 3
The new LEGO® Education WeDo 2.0™ is an amazing tool for introducing students grades 2 to 3 to basic engineering, robotics and programming, while incorporating a wider range of important science topics such as recycling, forces of nature, and others.
Science based guided projects include: Pulling, Speed, Robust Structures, Frog’s Metamorphosis, Plants and Pollinators, Prevent Flooding, Drop and Rescue, Sort and Recycle, and much more.
Grades 4-8 (Mindstorms, VEX)
Mindstorms: Robotics and Programming for Grades 4 - 8
Our Robotics + Programming courses are for Grades 3-8 students who are interested in designing and programming robots using the LEGO Mindstorms Education NXT and EV3 sets.*
The students work in pairs, and the learning activities include they will take part in include:
-
Working in pairs to design and modify simple to complex machines and robots
-
Brainstorming solutions and come up with a plan to program their robot using LAB View Visual Drag-and-Drop Interface to complete various challenges, usually surrounding a theme (such s recycling, space exploration, natural forces, and disasters, etc)
-
Collaborating effectively as a team to optimize their robot to participate in friendly contests, races, and challenges, including SumoBot Wrestling, Capture the Flag, and Jousting Tournaments.**
-
During Spring and Summer Camps, students will also be working through extensive projects such as Stair Climber, Color Sorters, and Tankbot, among others.
We offer two Robotics Spring Break Camps: March 18-22, 2019 and March 25-29, 2019
Classes will take place at University Chapel (UBC).
