April 5th - 13th is National Robotics Week!
Embedded Files
National Robotics Week highlights the importance of robotics in education by inspiring students to explore STEM fields in fun and engaging ways. Robotics fosters critical thinking, creativity, and problem-solving skills while helping students understand real-world applications of technology. By integrating robotics into learning, we prepare students for future careers, encourage collaboration, and spark curiosity about how automation and AI shape our world. This week is an opportunity to introduce hands-on learning experiences, and inspire the next generation of innovators!
ELEMENTARY
WHAT ARE ROBOTS?
Introduction to Robots for Grades K-2
