This club encourages creative problem solving as students learn engineering and programming skills in a fun and engaging environment.
Students will learn to design and build their own motorized battle robots. Using principles of simple and complex machines, gearing, and mechanical advantage, students will try to flip, push, or smash their opponent’s battle robot. Students learn the use of mechanical lifts, drills, ramps and more to disable or overcome other bots. Students will build and program LEGO® Mindstorms robots to compete in their own BattleBot tournaments!
No experience necessary – we teach kids everything they need to know to put together a winning BattleBot!
Returning students will be assigned more challenging projects!
