Crookshank Elementary - Fall 1 - RoboThink Robotics Afterschool 2025
Join us at Crookshank Elementary every Wednesday and build some robots with us! Each week, students dive into exciting hands-on STEM adventures—building robotic models, exploring engineering challenges, and discovering the science behind how things work. Our step-by-step lessons make learning fun while reinforcing key STEM concepts in a creative, engaging way. Have your builders been enrolled in our programs? They will continue to build upon the skills they've learned with new projects to advance in RoboThink robotics curriculum. Are your builders new? Great! We will be helping them to embark in the world of robotics! For grades K-5.

Robots will be broken down at the end of each day and clean up time starts 15 minutes before the end of class.
Food Policies
Students will be allowed snacks according to Crookshank's food policies. Please refer to Crookshank's food policies when sending snacks for robotics afterschool. No food allowed to be eaten in the media center but we can take students out to the outside patio before class starts for a quick snack.
