Welcome to Siouxland Robotics Club Summer Day Camp

We will introduce the kids to robotics with a very current and real-world theme – traveling to and living on Mars! Students will work as scientists and engineers as they progress though this set of lessons, challenges, and projects that fully integrate science, technology, engineering, and math concepts while prompting creative problem solving, communication, and teamwork.

The EV3 Space Challenge Set and Activity Pack is composed of three 2' x 3' learning mats, one 4' x 6' challenge mat, a large number of LEGO® elements for building the challenge models, and 15+ hours of activities in the following categories:

1  Basics of Gears: Students apply physical science and math principles to build effective robots.

2  Learning Missions: Students progress through nine distinct missions in which they investigate, observe, calculate, and apply their knowledge to solve specific tasks.

3  Challenge Missions: Students apply and creatively adapt programming and problem-solving skills to design and build robots to solve seven very different space challenges.

4  Research Projects: Students explore, plan, and develop around three fundamental challenges NASA engineers and scientists are working to solve – how to ensure humans can survive in space, how humans can create energy in space, and how robots can help humans explore space.

The day camp starts on Monday ending Thursday.  Students will arrive by 8:00 am and finish each day by 11:30 noon,  Registration is only $200 for the week.
