The Foundry offers students a hands-on introduction to the world of robotics and engineering. Specializing in creative robotics workshops for children, the Foundry provides a unique learning environment where students can build robots and explore engineering, electronics, and problem-solving concepts.
Teachers planning a field trip can expect their students to engage in interactive, project-based learning where they design and construct robots using motors, sensors, and recycled materials. The Foundry’s classes teach engineering principles while fostering creativity and collaboration. From simple robotic creations to more complex builds, students can work independently and apply critical thinking to solve challenges.
Educational programs align with curriculum standards in STEM. Workshops and guided sessions focus on principles such as circuitry, mechanics, and coding, allowing students to explore robotics in a fun and supportive environment.
Teachers can access educational resources such as lesson plans and activity guides to extend the learning experience back into the classroom. Programs can be customized to different grade levels and skill levels.
A field trip to the Brooklyn Robot Foundry provides students an exciting opportunity to develop their engineering skills and unleash their creativity, encouraging them to explore the possibilities of robotics and STEM education.
