JR Builders: LEGO Robotics

Congratulations, Ninja Families!

Your Ninja just completed an exciting week of robotics and coding in JR Builders: LEGO® Robotics! Throughout the week, they explored the foundations of engineering and programming by building, customizing, and coding LEGO robots using motors, sensors, and block-based logic. Through creativity, teamwork, and problem-solving, your Ninja gained valuable STEM skills while having tons of fun!

🛠️ What We Covered This Week

Throughout the camp, Ninjas explored robotics, hands-on engineering, and beginner-friendly programming using LEGO® SPIKE Essential kits. Here’s a recap of the activities and concepts covered:

Day 1: Meet the Robot & Motor Coding

Campers discovered what makes a robot work by exploring inputs and outputs, then learned to code motors to move in different directions and speeds.

Day 2: Loops, Light Blocks & Color Sensors

Ninjas explored pattern logic, created light shows, and coded color sensors to respond with different sounds and movements—featuring the Classic Carousel and Color Spin projects!

Day 3: Coding with Events & Movement

Campers learned how events like sound and tilt can trigger actions, and built exciting motion-based projects like the Arctic Ride and High-Tech Playground.

Day 4: Interactive Robots & Real-World Challenges

Ninjas tackled fun, real-world coding tasks with builds like “Avoid the Edge” and the Trash Monster Machine, learning to sort objects based on color using sensors and motors.

Day 5: Final Project & Camp Celebration

Using everything they learned throughout the week, campers designed, built, and coded their very own LEGO robot—then showcased their work during a Gallery Walk and celebrated their accomplishments with teammates!
