Foundations Class
Modules 1 + 2 — from robot anatomy to Scratch graphical programming with linear motion and simple loops.
Course goals
What we teach
Get to know the robot
Understand sensors (eyes/ears) versus actuators (hands/legs).
Ship your first moving build
Independently program forward/backward/turning loops in Scratch by the end of class.
Curriculum
What happens in class?
Module 1 — Anatomy of robots
Meet sensors and actuators — how a robot senses and acts.
Module 2 — Linear instructions and loops
Scratch graphical programming: forward/backward/turning combined with loops.
Course details
Modules: M1 robot anatomy + M2 linear instructions and loops (Scratch graphical programming — forward / backward / turning). Duration: 2 hours (one scheduling block). Hardware: 6-in-1 Robot. Matching events: basic 6-in-1 control tasks and entry-level line-following / challenge events.
Schedule
A day in the course
One 2-hour block covering robot anatomy and the first hands-on Scratch session.
