From April 15 to 29, students in the Grade 5 and 6 Gifted Withdrawal Program at St. Bruno/St. Raymond School engaged in an educational experience with Snapology's Real World Robotics workshop. This three-week program immersed students in the applications of robotics using Lego Spike Prime.
Throughout the workshop, students explored fundamental robotics concepts such as programming, sensor integration, and mechanical engineering. They worked collaboratively to build and program robots that responded to sensors, incorporated loops, and modified variables using the Word Blocks coding language.
Beyond technical skills, the workshop emphasized teamwork and communication. Students learned to collaborate effectively, developing respectful and productive relationships with their peers while tackling complex engineering challenges.
The skills taught in this workshop are essential for preparing students for future educational and professional opportunities in STEM fields. Snapology's Real World Robotics workshop equips students with the tools they need to succeed in the 21st-century workforce.
This initiative was made possible through the dedication of educators and the support of the school community, ensuring that students are well-prepared to excel in robotics.
