X-ALT-DESC;FMTTYPE=text/html:<p><strong>Registration is required. Space is
  limited.</strong></p>\n<p>Join us for an introductory robotics program pr
 esented by two Walter Johnson High School juniors!</p>\n<p>As technology c
 ontinues to shape our world\, skills in&nbsp\;STEM&mdash\;especially robot
 ics\, AI\, and engineering&mdash\;are becoming increasingly essential. At 
 the same time\, learning these skills can be a fun and rewarding experienc
 e for kids. <strong>This program aims to: spark interest in&nbsp\;STEM&nbs
 p\;in our community\, while creating a space for children who may not be a
 ble to learn robotics on their own\, and to learn to work as a team to pur
 sue a common goal!</strong></p>\n<p>Participants will:</p>\n<ul>\n<li><str
 ong>1st Session</strong>: Robot building\, overview of code blocks\, basic
  movement (turns\, speed adjustment) includes challenges like making a rob
 ot\, and a square shape with movement</li>\n<li><strong>2nd Session</stron
 g>: Sensors (sensors explained\, types of sensors\, uses of the sensors\, 
 and then tasks in which sensors need to be used)</li>\n<li><strong>3rd Ses
 sion</strong>: Attachments (purpose of attachments\, different types of at
 tachments\, attachment mechanics\, coding attachments)</li>\n<li><strong>4
 th Session</strong>: Introduce and start working on the previous First Leg
 o League challenges for the competition.&nbsp\;Finish working on challenge
 s and hold a competition between the 2 teams!</li>\n</ul>\n<p><strong>Ques
