Robotics with LEGO WeDo

Recommended age: 6 - 8

LEGO WeDo is a robot made for education. For many students, the LEGO bricks are familiar yet the programmable motors and sensors make LEGO WeDo much more advanced. We have created a large set of fun projects that include animals, cars, and toys that students can build and program with.

Learning Outcomes

By completing the Robotics with LEGO WeDo classes, students will learn to follow instructions to build the robots and to customize their robots by programming. Robotics is a great way to introduce programming as any changes the student makes to the program is reflected in the physical world. As an example, by turning the motor on for double the time, students can see that the robot travelled twice the distance.

The image below is how students would program the LEGO WeDo robot. This is generally known as block programming. Students drag-and-drop blocks and connect them together to form a program.

Teaching Style & Approach

Our approach is to develop well-rounded students. For younger students, the best way to learn is through fun, hands-on activities each class. At each level, students will get a balance of:

  • Art & Science: combining creativity with logical reasoning
  • Soft & Technical Skills: practicing a variety of skills including coding, problem solving, abstract thinking, communication and collaboration
  • Individual & Group Activities: working through challenges individually and as a group
  • Digital & Physical Activities: reinforcing concepts using digital and real-world activities
