Class Descriptions

(See our Jr Robotics Classes below)

We learn, build and play with LEGO bricks!  

We teach principles of engineering using LEGO bricks, motors, and remote controls using our proprietary model plans designed by engineers and architects.  Each four-week session will be a mix of science and engineering, as kids build models that demonstrate the concepts learned. They then are challenged to think out of the box to problem solve and modify, the models that they build as they are given a fun and engaging model engineering challenge to solve each week. Each 4 week session will provide a new experience for your child. As students progress through our program,  students are recognized with awards for successfully completing challenges within the class.  Once students successfully complete various class objectives, they are awarded a certificate for each level of completion as they progress through our program. Although, we encourage taking classes successively, it is not required, you may enroll your child for  one class, 3 classes or as we recommend,  stay in the program on a continual basis.
