PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Build. Code. Engineer.

LEGO SPIKE Prime combines hardware engineering with software programming in a visual, engaging platform perfect for Grades 3–7. Every concept is learned through building and operating real, functioning machines.

🏗️

MECHANICAL ENGINEERING

Learn gears, pulleys, levers, structural design, and mechanical advantage. Build real working machines that solve real engineering challenges.

💻

BLOCK CODING

Program using SPIKE Prime's block-based and Python environments. Master loops, conditionals, functions, variables, and event-driven programming.

📡

SENSOR SYSTEMS

Work with distance, color, force, and gyro sensors. Create robots that respond intelligently to their environment using sensor-driven logic.

🌬️

PNEUMATICS

An exclusive hands-on unit on pneumatic systems — cylinders, valves, pressure, and control. Students build pneumatic machines and understand air-powered mechanics.

📊

DATA LOGGING

Collect and analyze data from robot sensors. Learn how scientists and engineers use data to understand and improve machine performance.

🎯

PROJECT-BASED LEARNING

Every concept leads to a build project. Students leave camp with a portfolio of completed robots and documented engineering challenges.
