DIY Orbot

Mr. Ruiz

Children build confidence and STEM competency while earning special certifications in a series of fun, hands-on challenges. They build their own personalized DIY Orbot to earn a Designer certification, take apart their bot to earn the title of Mechanic, transform their bot into a bot-dozer that knocks down towers to become a Construction Manager, and prepare their bot to play soccer, create art and perform a dance routine to become a Personal Trainer, Artist and Choreographer. 

This course emphasizes: 

Building persistence by completing a series of tasks with their robots. 

Overcoming a series of challenges to build confidence in their problem-solving abilities.  

Exploring lessons in reverse engineering and the invention process.
