Ready-to-run EduTrend Contents robotics teaching resources workshops for primary, middle and high school. Each free download includes a step-by-step session plan, facilitator notes, three student worksheets and an assessment checklist. Full 20-week programmes are available in EduStore.
Predict the Robot
Primary · Ages 7–10
Foundation · 40 min
Pupils read short robot programs, predict the path on a grid, then run them to check, showing understanding better than a finished model alone.
Explore the Kit
Primary · Ages 8–11
Developing · 50 min
Groups explore a robotics kit through structured tasks, learn part names, use a parts checklist and agree care routines so kits stay complete.
Simulate Before You Build
Middle School · Ages 11–14
Intermediate · 60 min
Students use a free browser simulator such as Tinkercad Circuits to build and code an Arduino circuit with a button and LED before touching real hardware.
Square, Then Stop at a Line
Middle School · Ages 12–14
Intermediate · 60 min
Pairs program a robot to drive a square, then to stop exactly at a line, practising loops, calibration and sensors in one focused lesson.
Teach-Back: Design a Robotics Lesson
High School · Ages 15–18
Advanced · 2 × 60 min
Teams design and teach a 20-minute robotics activity for younger pupils using a free resource, with a clear outcome, a prediction check and a care routine.
