About This Course
This workshop is for young roboteers, 6 to 8, who love to build and are ready to automate their robots through code! With the new VEXGO Block Code software, budding programmers can learn to think like a coder by allowing them to easily build and code whatever they can imagine.
Young Roboteers will learn how to program and automate different structures and mechanisms that they themselves build! Each day will be packed with a new build and introduction to new coding logic.
