It has two I/O ports to connect to external motors, sensors or any new component belonging to the LPF 2.0 system. It is powered from a battery source, 2 AA batteries or a rechargeable battery pack. It has built-in Bluetooth low energy to wireless connect to the control software/App. Lego WeDo 2.0 Smarthub – (The brain) an electronic system based building brick that is part of the LEGO Power Functions (LPF) 2.0, a new technology platform for LEGO Education. Lego Education WeDo 2.0 Core Set with wireless technology. Here is the picture of the Lego WeDo 2.0 Kit. Since many kids are already familiar with Legos, these kits are a great way to get them started in STEM. The curriculum facilitates and supports a clear, easy-to-follow journey through subjects, including: life-, physical-, earth- and space sciences, and engineering. The kit contains everything you need to ignite a child’s desire to learn while enhancing their skills in engineering, science, coding and technology. This post will be the first in a series of posts where I will discuss the WeDo 2.0 projects and how to build them in detail. I will walk you through what it includes and how to sort it out. Recently, I purchased the Lego Education WeDo 2.0 Core set for our school. Lego Education recommends this kit for age 7 years or older (I’m sure you can use this for younger children who love building with legos). If your school does not have a similar STEM program, you can still get started with your child at home using the newest WeDo 2.0 kit. My son’s school only had one volunteer teacher, so I have become the second parent volunteer where I teach Lego WeDo Robotics to second and third grade students. Many Elementary Schools are introducing STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering and Math) programs. These multiple tools are combined to introduce students to multiple programming languages through which they can learn coding basic principles via hands on applied projects.LEGO WeDo 2.0 STEM Robotics Kit Introduction The Scratch program also includes an extension package for the WeDo 2.0 which enables using the Scratch programming blocks to interact with your WeDo 2.0 creations and add visual animations and sounds. Accompanying guides helps teachers to become confident users of the WeDo 2.0 Core Set. The WeDo 2.0 Curriculum Pack covers life, physical, earth, and space sciences, as well as engineering, based upon the latest science standards and was created to enhance students' curiosity and science skills. There are 27 lessons provided per grade that include a combination of LEGO Education WeDo 2.0 source projects, LKD publishing WeDo 2.0 source projects, as well as, LKD publishing Scratch coding projects (using the MIT Scratch programming language and software). LKD publishing authors have created this resource to expand on the number of lesson plans provided by LEGO Education’s WeDo 2.0 product targeting primary levels.
