Claymont Library – Robotics Laboratory @ Claymont Public Library
Mar 12 @ 6:00 pm – 7:30 pm

Join the staff at the Claymont Public Library in their Robotics Laboratory the second and fourth Tuesday of the Month.

For roboteers ages 8 through 12 the have VEX IQ robot construction. This year roboteers will be building robots to play the game “Next Level” and competing with other Libraries in the spring.

Roboteers ages 5 and up will be learning programming skills with the DASH robot. Our little blue friend can move, draw, look around, and talk under the direction of the roboteers. Lots of fun playing games and learning basic Scratch Language programming.

Scratch is also the programming in VEXIQ, so roboteers can also see their programming in action with the VEXIQ robots.
