Sample Lesson: The Great adventures

At Rocket Academy, we are thrilled to offer a dynamic series of workshops based on the LEGO® SPIKE™ Essentials curriculum.

Each week, students will embark on exciting projects that ignite their creativity and enhance their STEAM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics) skills. With hands-on activities and engaging challenges, our program is designed to inspire young minds and foster a love for learning.

Learning modules: STEAM, Computer Science, Storytelling

  • Each workshop is designed to build on the previous week’s learning, providing a comprehensive and engaging experience for students.

  • Students will learn about the principles of engineering and design as they build a balloon-powered vehicle. They will explore concepts of force, motion, and problem-solving while developing their teamwork and communication skills.

  • This lesson introduces students to robotics and programming by designing and programming a robot to help rescue animals. They will gain skills in coding and learn how technology can be used to solve real-world problems.

  • Students will explore the fundamentals of environmental science as they create models of a forest ecosystem. They will learn about the importance of conservation and the impact of human activities on nature.

  • This lesson focuses on problem-solving and critical thinking as students create a treasure map and build a treasure-hunting robot. They will enhance their spatial awareness and learn to follow and create complex instructions.

  • Students will delve into space science by building and programming a space rover. They will learn about the challenges of space exploration and develop their understanding of robotics and planetary science.

  • This lesson introduces students to simple machines and mechanics as they build a spooky haunted house with interactive features. They will explore basic engineering principles and the concept of mechanical systems.

  • Students will create and program an underwater robot to explore the ocean floor. They will learn about marine biology, underwater robotics, and the importance of technology in ocean exploration.
