Classroom-ready, curriculum-aligned Computer Science & AI kits for years 3-5, designed to drive outcomes through hands-on learning.
The LEGO® Education Computer Science & AI Kit 8+ invites you to explore hands-on learning with real motion, sensing and coding challenges designed for Years 3–5 learners (ages 8+). This comprehensive kit brings fun and curiosity together as learners build creative models, experiment with how machines see colours, and use block-based coding to make their ideas come alive in playful and meaningful ways. With 30 ready-to-use classroom-ready lessons and free access to the Teacher Portal, this set makes introducing computer science and safe artificial intelligence concepts joyful and engaging for educators and learners alike.
Stop simply explaining what technology does — let learners build and code it themselves! The icon- and word-based coding tools are intuitive and designed to give everyone a chance to succeed. PIN-based lesson access means no passwords to manage, and projects are saved locally to help maintain privacy and reduce setup stress.
Educational benefits:
- Develops logical reasoning and sequential thinking as groups build and code models that respond to commands.
- Encourages exploration of computational concepts such as events, loops and conditionals through physical play and coding challenges.
- Builds confidence with beginner-friendly AI elements that show how machines can detect and react to colours.
- Supports collaborative learning as learners work together, share ideas and solve problems as a team.
Classroom & play activity ideas:
- Create a “sensors in action” trail where models must detect colour changes to move forward or change behaviour.
- Code a story sequence: learners build characters that “act out” parts of a simple narrative using events and loops.
- Play “capture the colour” — learners programme models that sort coloured LEGO® bricks into matching bins.
- Host a mini “design challenge” where teams use lessons to build and code imaginative inventions that solve problems.
