Hands-On STEM at 7GA! STEM students at 7GA are putting their coding skills to the test! In this activity, small teams worked together to program a tiny robot to follow a custom track taped on the floor. Using iPads to input commands, they collaborated, problem-solved, and fine-tuned their code until the robot successfully navigated the course. This engaging lesson builds critical thinking, creativity, and teamwork all key ingredients for future innovators. We grow by using STEM. #7GAGrowTogether

Students are bringing STEM to life as they code in action! In this activity, they are working outdoors to program and test their designs.
