Robotics for Homeschoolers

Mindstorms LEGO Box

The library offers a semester-long beginner and intermediate robotics program for homeschooled students aged 10 to 18. This program uses Mindstorm EV3 Robotics. The LEGO Mindstorms EV3 Kit engages teens in building a robot with sensors and to achieve an objective. Using teamwork, everyone works towards an assigned task. Students should leave with improved logical thinking and problem-solving capabilities as a result of participating in this program. Check when our next registration is on our calendar.
