Snapology is bringing two popular programs together in this exciting mash - up! The first half of the class, students will explore the mechanics of simple an complex machines building LEGO® robot hardware. Then, using the companion app, they will program the software instructions and send them via Bluetooth to the hardware. Students will build with motion and tilt sensos, motors, axles, gears, and pulleys to make robots from our GameBots, Kinderbots, Creature Creator and Space Wars curriculum. The second half of the class will have students traveling to the nether and beyond in the this MinecraftTM inspired workshop! Students will have access to thousands of LEGO® bricks and endless materials for inspiration. A trained Snapologist will help bring creative ideas to reality by teaching LEGO® building tricks and tips. They'll also use their critical thinking with MinecraftTM trivia, a scavenger hunt, and other STEAM challenges!
About Snapology Hopedale:
At Snapology we believe that children are meant to learn through play. When children are engaged in interactive, hands-on learning activities, their creativity flourishes and they show an increased interest in school. We help your child grow up with a thirst for knowledge. How do we do it? Snapology engages children ages 1-14 using LEGO® bricks, K’Nex and technology. While the kids are having fun with familiar toys, laptops and iPads, we sneak in the learning. Shh, don't tell them it's educational!
