Build and Program a Robot to Keep!

We’re kicking off January with one of our favorite hands-on projects at LabSpace-building and programming a robot you can keep!
In this 3-week series, kids will build their own Cutebot smart car from scratch and learn how to bring it to life using Microsoft MakeCode. We’ll cover the basics of block coding while exploring how sensors work—teaching our robots to navigate rooms, follow lines, flash custom LED lights, and avoid obstacles.
Because learning doesn’t stop when class ends, every student takes home their complete setup (the Cutebot, micro:bit board, and battery pack) so they can keep coding and experimenting with family at home.
Class Details:
Tuition: $110 (covers all 3 sessions + the full robot kit to keep)
Wednesdays (Jan 6 – Jan 20): 10:00 AM or 5:30 PM
Saturdays (Jan 9 – Jan 23): 10:00 AM
Whether your child is completely new to coding or ready for their next project, we’d love to have them at the table with us. We keep our group sizes small so everyone gets plenty of support and space to create.

Creative Engineering with Arduino and Cardboard

This is an advanced class and requires permission to register. Please email Annette@LabSpaceRobotics.com to see if it is appropriate.
Bring cardboard creations to life with real electronics! Returning makers will pair modular Grove Arduino kits with cardboard construction to design and code custom, interactive physical mechanisms. We’ll spend the first couple of weeks learning how the new programming works and then start with several hands-on projects to get a hands-on understanding – for instance, we’ll code a Rock, Paper Scissors games and create a physical game out of cardboard and recyclables.  Be sure to save April 24 for Robot Parade.  We’ll be sure to have projects to display at that!
2 weeks are built into the schedule for bad weather or ilness. If LabSpace cancels more than 2 classes, we will add on to the end of the semester.

Wednesdays 12:30-1:20  Jan 27-April 21

Tuition: $125

May Homeschool Camps

Maker Camp (Age 9-12)
This three-day camp offers a mix of robotics, engineering, and digital design. The schedule is designed to keep students engaged by rotating between different types of activities throughout the day.

 Lego Mindstorms: The morning session focuses on robotics and sensor-based programming. Students will work through challenges to build and code autonomous robots.

Engineering Projects: We will work on physical builds, including a large cardboard knife switch project. This hands-on work helps students understand circuitry and mechanical assembly.

Digital Design: Afternoon sessions include 3D modeling in TinkerCAD. On the final day, we will introduce OctoStudio, an app used to create interactive coding projects using mobile sensors.

Lunch: There is a daily 40-minute break for lunch (12:00 PM – 12:40 PM). Students should bring a sack lunch.

May 11–13 10:00-2:00
Ages 9-12
Tuition: $90

 

Junior LEGO Robotics Camp (Grades 1-3)
This one-hour session is dedicated to building and programming with LEGO Spike Essentials. Students will use motors and sensors to bring their creations to life while exploring basic engineering concepts like levers and linkages. It’s a hands-on introductory experience designed to help younger students learn how to combine physical building with simple coding.

May 11–13 10:00-11:00
Grades 1–3
Tuition: $30

This is a continuing intermediate class. Some Scratch experience is needed. We’ll be using the Scratch programming language that was developed at MIT to introduce students ages 8-16 to coding concepts.
Scratch is a great starting place for coding. The environment was developed to make learning big concepts easier. Students will learn about loops, events, wait statements and variables at a level they can understand. Then, when they are ready to move onto text-based programming, they have this understanding already in place.
Scratch will give them a tool they can use now to express themselves digitally. They can create games, tell stories and more with Scratch.
While we’d love to be offering this class in-person, we will be continuing online due to Covid. We’ve come to really enjoy our online classes this summer and meeting students from across the country. If you have any questions, please contact us. We’re happy to speak with you on the phone (573) 645-0800 or set up a Zoom meeting so we can all practice using the controls before a class situation. We know this is a crazy time, but we’re so thankful to be able to continue to teach and want to make your life easier. If this is your first year homeschooling, we encourage you to enjoy your journey. It may not be what you planned, but take a deep breath—you can do this and you will make some great memories!
