Coding challenges
Young people will complete a series of challenges requiring them to design and debug programmes.
In this exciting space-themed STEM experience, Key Stage 2 pupils work in small teams to investigate the use of robots in space exploration. One Small Step is an engaging, high-energy workshop that will allow young people of all ages and abilities to understand simple algorithms and have fun in the process. Can your young people make the space launcher blast off from Earth, weave through the asteroid belt, navigate its way around Mars and finally run away from the alien? This workshop meets many of the national curriculum requirements for Key Stage 2 coding. Additionally, young people will: • Learn about real space missions and the robots used in planetary exploration • Take on coding challenges using Spheros and a space-themed challenge mat • Design and debug programs to complete a series of coding missions • Develop skills such as teamwork, problem solving, creativity and adaption
