These will be used in my STEM classroom as supplemental activites, but will mostly be used with my 21st Century After School Club groups as a "Fun Friday" activity, as there is more time available for the students to explore the kits. After my students have learned to follow project directions and build their own creations using simpler LEGO sets, they will complete building and coding projects provided by the LEGO WeDo kits. The WeDo's are programmed using the tablet (which also provides the story for the project). I already have one tablet in my lab, I just need one more for the second WeDo kit. For each project, the students have solve a problem for Max and Mia, two characters in the LEGO app, and build and code a machine for them. My students have very little to no experience playing and building with LEGO bricks, let alone using them to code! I am excited to see their eyes light up when they build and code their first robots using these WeDo kits and tablet.
