Why are robots important for our young students? Integrating robotics into early childhood education helps in achievement in science, technology, engineering, and math fields. For children in Pre-K, robotics can introduce STEM concepts to them in a playful way, that is encouraging them to be excited about further exploration in Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math! Young students think and learn best when moving, playing, building, and engaging with concrete objects. With robotics, children's codes affect the robot. It moves and reacts based on the instructions the children give it. Let's face it, children today get enough screen time! Robotics Makes Coding Concrete and Screen-Free! Working with robotics and coding, especially when facilitated in a classroom, means engaging with the engineering and design process. This process encourages children to identify a problem, imagine and plan a solution, build and test their creation, and share their work with other students. In this process, things won’t always work as expected. The process is set up to expect students to test, fix, their work, so students focus on continually making changes and improvements rather than on being right or wrong. As they seek help and advice from peers, children also develop collaborative social skills around a shared project.
