Event Description

Teams will compete in sumobot tournaments in the morning

testing the engineering and design of their EV3 robots. The

afternoon will focus more on coding than building. Students

will use the iPads to co-create games using hopscotch. The

day will end off with a coding challenge. Teams will be asked

to code a robot to complete a simple challenge. The challenge

will hopefully help students understand how powerful coding

and robotics can be in solving real world problems.

Event Goals

• Expose students to coding and promote interest in STEM

• Promote Hour of Code (Dec 5-11)

• Bring together like minded students and promote collaboration and leadership

• Engage new schools in robotics and provide an opportunity for teachers to co-learn with students
