WHAT OUR COMMUNITY SAY

I loved it! I saw the kids working together and crossing hurdles just by communicating to each other. It’s amazing!

Irma Arias-Zamora Elementary School Teacher, Teaching RoboRobo Robotics

Both my girls participated in Build a Robot this Fall and loved their experiences. They learned so much in the class and the teachers were excellent. I loved that besides the hands on learning, they also learned how to work

Jaime Van Bogart Parent of Build-A-Robot Learning Center in Superior

Build-A-Robot is an excellent addition to the local community. It is the only program I have seen that gives students the opportunity to learn real robotics. The access to hardware and world-class instructors is amazing.

JalalI Hartman CEO, Robauto

Our students have thoroughly enjoyed using the RoboRobo kits in our robotics enrichment program! The kits challenge them to think critically, and we have watched our students build their problem-solving skills as well as their teamwork skills. Our students take

Amanda Sailors, Ph.D. Student Services and Data Director, Madison County Schools

Attending the learning center has become a highlight of our week! The instructors and staff are attentive to the children’s needs and strengths, they challenge them to grow and provide an environment where learning can truly flourish. We are thankful

Students learn to build robots using Robo Robo Kid robot kits - Lego-compatible bricks plus sensors, motors, and a CPU. Programming the robots is as simple as swiping a card in a card reader. Students learn to code on the robots, with online game-based curriculum, and with unplugged activities. Students will learn to program using commands like loops and events. Students learn to collaborate with others meaningfully, investigate different problem-solving techniques, persist in the face of difficult tasks, and learn about internet safety. Part of each class will be devoted to teaching life skills, including self-awareness, self-management, social awareness, relationship skills, and responsible decision making. Each student is required to buy or rent a robot kit from Build-a-Robot. Buying a robot allows students to bring the robot home between classes and keep at the end of the session. Renting a robot allows students to use the robot kit during classes. https://buildarobotk12.com/index.php/classfaq/ Read more 5:30 pm: Middle School Computer Science: Interactive Games and Animations December 2, 2019 5:30 pm – 7:30 pm Build a Robot Learning Center 406 Center Drive, Suite C Superior, CO 80027 Superior 720-538-9008 Map Middle School Computer Science: Interactive Games and Animations 09/16/2019 - 12/11/2019 W, 5:30 PM - 7:30 PM Through this program, the Interactive Games and Animations unit of code.org, students build on their coding experience as they create programmatic images, animations, interactive art, and games. Starting off with simple, primitive shapes and building up to more sophisticated sprite-based games, students become familiar with the programming concepts and the design process computer scientists use daily. They then learn how these simpler constructs can be combined to create more complex programs. In the final project, students develop a personalized, interactive program. Along the way, they practice design, testing, and iteration, as they come to see that failure and debugging are an expected and valuable part of the programming process.

Students will develop their programming skills, while exploring more deeply the role of hardware platforms in computing. Harkening back to the Input/Storage/Processing/Output model for a computer, students look towards modern “smart” devices to understand the ways in which non-traditional computing platforms take input and provide output in ways that couldn't be done with the traditional keyboard, mouse, and monitor. Using App Lab and Adafruit’s Circuit Playground, students develop programs that utilize the same hardware inputs and outputs that we see in many modern smart devices, and they get to see how a simple rough prototype can lead to a finished product. The unit concludes with a design challenge that asks students to use the Circuit Playground as the basis for an innovation of their own design.

Renting a robot allows students to use the robot kit during classes. https://buildarobotk12.com/index.php/classfaq/ Read more 4:00 pm: Kindergarten Computer Science and Robotics December 12, 2019 4:00 pm – 5:00 pm Build a Robot Learning Center 406 Center Drive, Suite C Superior, CO 80027 Superior 720-538-9008 Map Kindergarten Computer Science and Robotics 10/03/2019 - 12/12/2019 TH, 4:00 PM - 5:00 PM Students will build robots and learn to code in a fun, supportive environment! Students learn to build robots using Robo Robo Kid robot kits - Lego-compatible bricks plus sensors, motors, and a CPU. Programming the robots is as simple as swiping a card in a card reader. Students learn to code on the robots, with online game-based curriculum and with unplugged activities. Students will learn to program using commands like loops and events. Students learn to collaborate with others meaningfully, investigate different problem-solving techniques, persist in the face of difficult tasks, and learn about internet safety.

Starting off with simple, primitive shapes and building up to more sophisticated sprite-based games, students become familiar with the programming concepts and the design process computer scientists use daily. They then learn how these simpler constructs can be combined to create more complex programs. In the final project, students develop a personalized, interactive program. Along the way, they practice design, testing, and iteration, as they come to see that failure and debugging are an expected and valuable part of the programming process.

As a homeschool family, we really appreciate the versatility and flexibility of the teachers and staff. They really encourage children to explore their own creativity. RoboRobo classes also have some unique advantages as the students can see the inner workings of the hardware and circuitry with what they are building. Excellent classes for tech driven kids.

We love Build-A-Robot! We have two elementary students who have attended since it opened. It's been such an amazing place for them to grow in their building skills and knowledge of coding. Not only that, they learn about working with others, presenting their work, and problem solving skills. We highly recommend Build-a-Robot to the community!

This is the best education center where a student can learn about the fundamental skills of engineering and STEM while having much fun. I have been going here for a year, and I think that I have learned a lot. I've also made many new friends. The teachers here are very supportive of everybody, and they don't put limits on a student's creativity. There is also a variety of things students learn, such as rasberry pi, HTML, 3d printers and, ETC., and we leave knowing many things. This center is great, and I highly recommend anybody interested to come.

5 Stars +++ My 8 year old son loves the classes he has taken at Build-A-Robot. I have watched some of his classes and the teachers are so amazing at keeping the kids engaged, learning and having fun. The owner is super responsive to parents. I would highly recommend this place.

My daughter (going to middle school) attended a week-long summer camp here and had a great time. She was able to learn some basic robotics and coding and then built her own music box as the final project on the last day. She was proud of her project and brought it to show off at a friend's place. She's attended other coding classes but was never that interested in them. This class was different, allowing more creativity, rather than just following some exercises.
