The LEGO SPIKE Prime Set is a STEAM education kit for students in grades six through eight that will offer them an interactive way to learn about basic programming concepts and much more. The kit comes with LEGO building blocks along with a programmable hub, motors, sensors and works with an accompanying app to let users change up the functionality using Scratch coding.
The classroom-friendly robot comes with 32 lessons that can be used by teachers to help enhance the existing curriculum and encourage students to get creative as they play. The LEGO SPIKE Prime Set is focused on relatively fast-paced play to help it accommodate the needs of educators. The kit can also be used out of the classroom by avid building block enthusiasts.
