We are putting together an educational program at the Brickmania Toyworks starting summer 2014. Our program will revolve around a STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Mathematics) curriculum assembled and led by teaching professionals with activities using LEGO® educational materials.
LEGO® MINDSTORMS® EV3 Robotics Boot Camp
Our first “Boot Camp” will be a week-long introduction to LEGO Mindstorms® using the latest EV3® programmable robotics system. Students will work individually and as groups to achieve course objectives throughout the week. Classes will held during morning hours for 3 hours each day (9am to noon). T-shirts will be provided for students as part of the team-building programs and will also receive a special gift upon course completion. Students are requested to bring a small snack for themselves each day. Class sizes will range from 10-16 students, for kids entering 6-8th grade in fall. Cost is $200 per student (or $160 if paid by May 31st). Each student must bring a completed release form on the first day of class. All classes take place at Brickmania Toyworks. The following weeks are currently available:
- June 23-27th (click link to sign up)
- July 14-18th (click link to sign up)
- August 4-8th (click link to sign up)
We may open up additional weeks if demand exists.
Students learn basic LEGO® robotics at a previous class run by our staff.
ADDITIONAL PROGRAMS COMING SOON
Brickmania has a long term goal of extending education programs year round. Additional courses, weekend, and after-school programs will be announced at a later date.
