Do you like video games? Ever wonder how a phone can do so many things? Amazed by real robots like the Mars rovers?
In movies, there’s usually a tech wiz character who can hack any system and build any app or gizmo they need. Technology is like a superpower.
That’s not true! You don't need superpowers to master all the tricks of the technology world. In fact, you'll start with Legos!
Be on time to the video meetings with your coach
Clear a nice big space to work before you start. A hard surface is better than a rug.
Don’t mix this Lego set with your own Legos. Don't lose any pieces. Someone will use this set after you and we want them to have everything they need, too.
FAIL often! Yes, that's a rule. That’s how you learn. And don’t get MAD if you get stuck. Get HELP from your parent or schedule a help session with your coach.
Invent! Try stuff! Be daring! Yes, that's a rule, too.
Do NOT use the robot to take over the world. That never ends well.
If your robot starts acting weird after a few hours, like blinking a light all the time or not moving, just change the batteries!
