Kit Overview
The Akili Robotics Kit is the first step in the Sinapse STEM journey a playful, structured start to robotics for young learners. Each snap-fit piece, sensor, and motor is designed to help children see how machines sense, respond, and think. Its learning flow mirrors real-world robotics with a visual, block-based interface. Rooted in Finnish pedagogy, Akili connects robotics with storytelling and teamwork, turning play into logical discovery.
🎯 Grades 3–4
🧠Focus: Programming, Electronics, Robotics, IoT
📚 Includes: 21 Learning Modules, 9 Project Modules, 2 Capstone Builds
Three Learning Levels
Level 1: Foundations
Introduction to electronics, programming basics, and output devices (LEDs, buzzers, motors).
Level 2: Automation
Work with sensors, create data logs, and design sensor-actuator interactions for real-world responses.
Level 3: Connectivity
