In Snapology's Creature Creator Robotics class, your animal lover will create their own animal inspired robotic models. Students will learn about gear ration, sensors, simple machines, and programming as they build insects, dolphins, gorillas, and much more. Your child is sure to have a wild time as they build, learn and play. 

What the Students Will Learn:

- Simple Machines

Students will learn about several simple machines throughout the class. Whether learning about pulleys while creating spiders, or wheels and axels as they create their very own dolphins, students will see simple machines in action. They will also begin to think critically about their surroundings and realize all the simple machines they use every day. 

- Axles, Gears and Motors

Children will learn about the importance of axels, gears, and motors in mechanical movement. They will actively experiment with these components to create their robot, while facilitating a deeper understanding of mechanics.

- Programming Skills

Each week, children will be given a program to operate their robotic build. Students are then encouraged to use critical thinking and programming skills to enhance their robot's program. Whether making their build respond to motion and tilt sensors, adding loops, or creating fun sounds, children will learn valuable programming skills in an easy to use drag and drop programming format. 

-Teamwork/Partner Skills

Small groups and peer partners are key components of Snapology's classroom approach. We emphasize positive teamwork sills in our programs and constantly work to develop healthy, respectful collaborations between students. Through group planning, sharing of materials, and fun partner experiences, students become more cognizant of how to interact with their peers in a respectful and productive way.
