Exploring Robotics with Ranger

Ranger Kit

An adventure awaits with Ranger as you climb, race, and balance through tough terrain! Students can build 3 different robots with this kit- the tank-like Off-road Land Raider, the three-wheel racing car Dashing Raptor, and the Self-balancing Nervous Bird. Students will build on (or discover!) their coding skills as they perform a variety of functions utilizing a light sensor, temperature sensor, sound sensor, ultrasonic sensor, line follower sensor, and gyroscope. These broad range of sensors allow Ranger to perform a variety of projects including data collection, line following and obstacle avoidance.

  • Use Scratch code to control the Ranger
  • Complete an obstacle course and challenge that use the sensors demonstrating science concepts
  • Lessons follow 5-E format, 5 lessons for Camps & Academic Enrichment Programs
  • Easy to follow assembly instructions allow students to have fun while learning engineering concepts

"The alignment with NGSS supports the work that we are trying to implement, and is where we are finding the support and connection to build authentic connections to curriculum."
- Maureen Smith, K-12 Science Instructional Support Specialist at Broome Tioga BOCES

 

Engage with Ranger STEM labs 

Following a 5E lesson structure, NGSS units invite students to explore science topics with an integrated STEM learning approach to reflect the interconnected nature of STEM disciplines as they are practiced in the real world. By building and programming real robots with our Ranger robotics kit and custom app, students get a hands-on way to bring NGSS concepts to life.

 

Our Ranger Curriculum:

  • Explores the engineering design process with hands-on robotics projects
  • Supports skills progression and vertical alignment across grade levels
  • Aligns to educational standards to ensure robust, high-quality content
  • Was written by experienced classroom educators and content area expert

 

App and online-based programming is fun and accessible for kids

The free Makeblock app provides easy step-by-step instructions for 3 models that are easy to follow, so students can quickly get started and immerse themselves in the build. Makeblock's mBlock programming software is also available online.

  • Icon-based system
  • Program motors and movements from your Bluetooth-enabled device.
  • Control, code, and bring your robotic creations to life.
