Three words: Robotics for Kids! Robotics for Kids uses fun, hands-on projects to get your child’s creative juices flowing. Your child will learn how to build and program robots with LEGO® bricks and software — all while making friends, developing new skills and having a great time with STEM.
For many kids, robotics class is a highlight of their week. We have several kids’ robotics programs available to fully engage and challenge your aspiring engineer, computer programmer or scientist. Your child is welcome at our center in Harlingen. He or she can jump into Robotics 101 or Robotics 201 without any prior experience. How we teach kids robotics each week In each Robotics for Kids class at Sylvan of Harlingen, your child and a buddy work together to plan and build a new robot using LEGO® bricks, letting their creativity and imaginations loose. Along the way, they learn science and engineering concepts, such as how pulleys, levers and motors work. As the kids’ robots take shape, they experiment with LEGO® Education’s award-winning WeDo™ software. They discover how to apply computer programming concepts and find new ways to get their “bot” moving. Then, the energy levels (and smiles) really reach a high point, as the kids challenge other teams to friendly games or take part in imaginative play.
At the end of each robotics class, your child enjoys a wrap-up activity to reinforce the STEM skills he or she learned in class. (You’ll hear all about it on the way home.) A few reasons your child (and you!) will love Robotics for Kids:While your child is having a blast creating robotics, you’ll know he or she is learning practical STEM skills. (Just imagine how these new-found skills could inspire your child in the future!)In each Robotics for Kids class, your child participates in creative and challenging activities that encourage a love of science, technology and engineering at an early age. Our interactive exercises engage kids’ hands, as well as their minds — great for children who learn in different ways. We keep you up-to-speed on the robotics and STEM skills your child is learning and what to expect next.

La complexité du modèle dépend de l’échelle du modèle, les petits utilisent des briques basiques mais les grands utilisent des briques complexes. Depuis 2006, la plupart des modèles sont « 3 en 1 », ils comportent la notice et les pièces pour construire trois modèles différents. En 2007, dans le sous-thème Exclusivités, est sorti un bâtiment modulaire qui est un bâtiment ayant des minifig, ils sont très détaillés et utilisent des techniques très avancées. Avant Lego Creator, il y avait un autre thème qui lui aussi utilisait des techniques très avancées avec les briques de l'époque ; il n'avait pas de nom officiel mais il a, après son arrêt, été appelé Lego sculptures. Ce dernier a eu des sculptures en briques et des reproductions d'avions et de bateaux. Lego Creator est un thème qui au début était axé sur des minifig 4+ s'appelant Tina et Max, des constructions simples pour enfants et des « Bulk » aussi appelés seaux de briques. En 2003, il y eut des sets avec des techniques de constructions plus réalistes comme un 4×4 du genre Technic en briques.
Ces sets plus réalistes s'appelaient jusqu'en 2006 des « designer sets ». C'est le thème Creator qui introduisit le premier calendrier de l'Avent Lego. En 2004 est sorti un sous-thème nommé X-pod qui sont des petites boites avec des briques pour construire un des trois modèles indiqués. Ce sous-thème se termina en 2006. À partir de 2005, le thème ne s'axait plus sur les constructions pour les plus jeunes ni sur les bulks, ils ont été déplacés dans un nouveau thème, brick and more mais s'axait seulement sur le réalisme mais les sets pour enfants continuèrent sous un autre thème : Briques et plus. En 2006, un sous-thème nommé Exclusivités qui use des techniques très avancées et très détaillées. En 2013, le sous-thème Exclusivités est renommé « Creator Expert ».This year’s fifth and sixth grade gifted students will be participating in a robotics program during the first semester of this school year. The program is First Lego League (FLL). The program is an outreach with Arizona State University Engineering School.
Every year FLL presents a challenge that participating students must solve as a team. This year’s challenge is entitled “Animal Allies”. In the past, people often thought about how animals could help us. Today, students need to think about how humans and animals can help each other. The FLL Challenge is an example of project based learning. Students need to identify a problem. In this case how animals and people interact. They need to design a solution that makes the interaction better for animals and people. Finally, the students need to share their problem and solution with others. The students will compete with other teams around the county and state. Your students will be conducting research, inviting and interviewing experts and preparing a presentation on their problem and solution. They will have to work together as a team, respecting each other’s ideas, showing gracious professionalism to teammates and competitors. The team will meet during their scheduled gifted class period and some occasional after school meetings.
