Campers learn to design and build their own motorized battle robots. Using principles of simple and complex machines, gearing, and mechanical advantage, students will try to flip, push, or smash their opponent’s battle robot. Students learn the use of mechanical lifts, drills, ramps and more to disable or overcome other bots. Students will build and program a LEGO® Robot to compete in the Battle Bot Championship! The robots will battle “to the death”, and the designers of the “last robot standing” for each round will be the winners. New challenges each week! Students who are participating in a full day camp must bring their own nut-free sack lunch, snack, and water bottle.

For our advancing robot engineers join the elite group of recruits to become a spy-in-training. Agents in training will receive their super-secret mission during each camp and then learn to build and code a robot that will have to move through obstacles to retrieve top-secret documents. They will be challenged to incorporate technology concepts, engineering principles, and programming, while using the LEGO© ® Robotics Construction Kits, Campers will learn how to break or make codes, learn coding, surveillance techniques, critical thinking, and solve logic puzzles. Each camp has new missions! No experience necessary – we teach kids everything they need to know to complete the secret mission. Students who are participating in a full day camp must bring their own nut-free sack lunch, snack, and water bottle.

Wild and Wacky Robot Walkers & Steerable Cars: Learn the basic mechanical properties of “how things work and move” through a total hands-on learning experience. Learn STEM aspects and understand the robotics aspect with each build. Students will work with Lego technic parts that come together to create movable, steerable, and remote-controlled robots. They will engage in a group of four with assigned roles as Instructor, Engineer, Builder, and Cross checker that rotates daily. They are encouraged to work as a team and will explore the use of motors, gears, pulleys, axles, wheels, IR technology and much more. Each build will be followed by a thrilling challenge that illustrates the need for modifications and also the need for “simplicity” and pitfalls of “complexity”. Have FUN racing your car and compete with other teams each day. Students who are participating in a full day camp must bring their own nut-free sack lunch, snack, and water bottle.

Drone Together is offering a faster and more advanced drone flying camp for any camper who has taken a beginner camp or after school class at RRISD. This camp offers most of the favorite flying activities from the beginner sessions, but brings in many more larger drones with more capabilities. One of the most unique drones we use are the Tello Drones, which are the best educational coding drones on the market. Our teachers use this drone with a DroneBlocks coding program to provide a very unique coding and programming experience for campers. All equipment is provided, so come ready to have fun and take on new challenges in this exciting and fast-paced STEM camp. Prerequisite: Camper must have already completed a beginner camp or after school class at RRISD Enrichment in the last 12 months.

Young Engineers are given age-appropriate LEGO® lessons and games, and LEGO® sets with plenty of instructors to help with building. Concepts of simple machines such as gears, pulleys, levers, and wheels are introduced through a series of activity-card LEGO® building projects. With the use of motors and electrical controls, the models come alive right before their eyes! They will be challenged with the LEGO® WeDo robotics, LEGO® Mindstorms, LEGO® Simple Machines, and LEGO® Maker projects. Students will have the opportunity to work on both engineering and coding as they build their own robotic creations.

Students participating in this mid level introductory robotics course will be working with VEX EXP robots. Over the course of the days students will learn the basics of design and and use basic hand tools to build robots in a small group. By the end of the week they will be able to code their robots to participate in challenges or games. REQUIRED SUPPLIES: All campers need to bring their charged district chromebook For more information, please contact enrichment@roundrockisd.org.
