Year One: Simple Machines
Welcome to the world of simple machines! In this year, we’ll be exploring the exciting world of levers, gears, cams, pulleys, and more! We’ll learn how to manipulate forces to do the work we want to do, and build strong structures that can withstand anything!
Year Two: Electricity and Complexity
Things are about to get electrifying! In year two, we’ll be adding complexity and electricity to our creations, bringing them to life! We’ll tackle fast vehicles, slow vehicles, complex machines, gearboxes, and walking robots! Get ready to be amazed!
Year Three: Building for the Future
