Advanced-2 Robotics with LEGO SPIKE Essential for children 6-9 years old
7-week course | Advanced Level 2 | Saturdays 24 May - 5 July 2025 | 9:30 - 11:00
Language: Dutch
Advanced 2 is for children who have taken Advanced 1 with us and are ready for the next step in their robotics adventure. In this course, we build on the skills developed in the earlier classes and delve deeper into mechanics, programming and robot design.
In this advanced course, children work on even more complex robot models and refine their programming skills with word blocks (based on Scratch). We explore new mechanical principles and introduce more challenging projects that encourage collaboration, problem-solving and creativity. Children learn to control their robots even more precisely and come up with innovative solutions to technical challenges.
Main goals
Robotics advanced
Students will expand their knowledge by building and programming more complex and advanced robot models with the LEGO SPIKE Essential set. They will experiment with new techniques and components to make their robots more efficient and versatile.
Mechanics
In this course, children delve deeper into mechanical principles, such as gears, levers and advanced motion techniques. They learn how to apply these principles to build robots that can respond better to their environment and perform more sophisticated tasks.
Programming
Students strengthen their programming skills by expanding on what they learned in Advanced 1. The focus is on strengthening and refining their understanding of existing techniques. They continue to work with the word block-based programming language (based on Scratch) and improve their ability to write structured and efficient code. This helps them control their robots with more precision and creativity and further develop their problem-solving skills.
