Sometimes we want a part to move more, sometimes less. Here are the pins that can help with that!

Have you ever wanted your robot to move as fast as possible? Or slower? Here's how!

Have you ever needed to make an arc turn? Do you know what an arc turn is? Let's find out!

Here we will learn our first turn, namely a spin turn!

This lesson presents lighter and more engaging material for students, and, when combined with the fun blocks, they often become distracted. Here are some guidelines that may help you.

Sometimes, we make a mistake in starting the robot, and we should stop it before its program runs out. Here's how to do it with a SPIKE Prime controller.

Have you had a block you want to delete? Or one you want to restore after deletion? Now you will find out how!

Most programs we write require several commands for the robot to execute to complete its task. Here's how to do it with SPIKE Prime Word Blocks software!

In this tutorial you will learn how to use tasks where you have to write text.

By default, the motors of the LEGO SPIKE Prime controller connect to ports A and B. What if we want to connect them to other ports? Here's how to change ports in the software.

In this tutorial, we will learn what the start block does when starting the program and where to find it.

In this tutorial we will learn what the first purple movement block does.

In this tutorial we will do a deep dive on all the options of the first purple movement block.

What a teacher should know when giving tasks to students:

We will build a simple robot and learn how to follow building instructions step by step.

Children tend to imitate. The easiest way to do something is to first see how it’s done. So, sit down and show your students how to program.

We will cover the typical reasons why your robot is not moving at all.

About the robot parts

This is what one of our simplest robots looks like:

EasyBot

Before we begin building, let’s take a look at some of the main parts of the robot.

Motors

Motors

Motors are like the "muscles" of the robot - they make it move.

Microcontroller (Brick)

LEGO SPIKE Brick

This part is called the "intelligent brick." You can think of it as the "brain" of the robot. It is a small computer where you upload your programs. It reads information from sensors and controls the motors based on your code.

LEGO Technic parts

• Tire

• Rim

• Double black pin

• Long pin (triple)

• Bush

• Gear

• Beam

In this video tutorial we dance with the robot. The goal of the mission is to reach the specific place on the FIRST LEGO League field and to Dance. It is suitable for students that are new and it gives every team a chance to accomplish at least on mission on the competition.

Helicopters can be used to transport cargo to areas that are difficult to reach. They are used to help others, bringing important packages like food.

Trains can transport cargo to many places. Keeping infrastructure like train tracks in good condition is important to ensure trains reach their destinations.

Transportation includes getting the correct cargo to the correct place. Sort your containers and deliver them to their destinations.

Having a package delivered to your doorstep is awesome! Packages can be transported safely, on time, and to your door.
