![]() ![]() One set contains the building elements needed for two students to complete all the projects presented in the curriculum pack.Įach market's specific curriculum needs will affect which grades projects best fits, so the target age group will vary from country to country. How many students do you recommend for each set? The result – a resource that builds students’ confidence to ask questions, define problems, and design their own solutions by putting scientific discovery in their hands. Teachers receive support through training, curriculum and built-in assessment. As they collaborate, they deeply engage with science, engineering, technology, and coding, sparking a love for experimentation and investigation. With WeDo 2.0, students will explore, create, and share their scientific discoveries as they build, program, and modify projects. The unique solution combines the LEGO ® brick, classroom-friendly software, engaging and standards-based projects which inspire every student’s desire to discover the world around them. Lego Wedo 2.LEGO Education WeDo 2.0 is a hands-on, elementary science solution that develops science practices in the classroom through a robot-based learning system.Code a racing car game with Scratch and Lego Wedo 2.0.Make sure to have the smarthub handy so you can press the button when needed. Select ‘Start Searching” and follow the instructions. To connect the smarthub when the icon is orange, click on the circle to open up the dialogue box. If it’s orange, the smarthub isn’t connected. In the top right corner there’s a circle that indicates the connection status. To check that the Wedo smartub is connected to Scratch, have a look at the Wedo code menu. It’s easy to get all the coding done without having the smarthub available, but it needs to be connected before you can test it out. How to check that the smarthub is connected Select ‘Go to Editor’ to start your coding or test out your creation. Once Scratch has done it’s thing, the dialogue box will say ‘Connected’. You’ll repeat the ‘Start Searching’ process, and press the button on the smarthub again. Activate Scratch Link by double-clicking on its icon, and try again. You might then get a dialogue box asking you to connect Scratch Link. If you clicked ‘Start Searching’, it will ask you to press the button on the smarthub.
