Robotics
Getting hands-on technology meaningfully embedded into the classroom is just one of the goals of our robotics program here at Holland Seventh-day Adventist Elementary. This powerful program inspires interest and participation in science and technology and engages students in grades 6 through 8 in playful and meaningful learning. Using icon based software and familiar LEGO building materials, students learn to master technology and teamwork skills by building and programming robots to perform a variety of tasks. Through the yearly challenge, students are completely immersed in a technological adventure that spans the entire curriculum including math, science, social studies, reading and English. It also helps them master a host of skills that are often difficult to authentically and effectively develop in the classroom including gracious professionalism, teamwork, hands-on technology training, creative problem solving and logic, design, engineering, project based learning, communication, research, and flexible thinking.
