This program is for students from 1st to 2nd grade who show an interest in robotics or are passionate about learning. Students will work in groups of two to code a Sphero Indi robot. They will use colored tiles to "program" the robot and instruct it to solve a maze. Members from competitive robotics teams will help groups complete the challenges and introduce them to FIRST, an organization that empowers STEM education and holds robotics competitions nationwide. 

Details: 

• Car shaped robots with color sensors will be used, and the participants will be guided on how these robots work and introduced to the concept of programming and technology
• The event will have 10+ maze challenges for kids to learn from. 
• The robots will be programmed using colored tile mats
• Students from FIRST Tech Challenge team 18603, TeraBridges, will assist the groups in designing, building, and coding the robot
