With age-appropriate activities that build from fundamental to advanced coding concepts, the Make Wonder STEM Center Suite is designed to cater to every learner’s pace and skill level. Younger students can start with Dash, learning basic coding principles through fun and interactive activities, while older students can explore more advanced programming with Cue, including text-based coding and JavaScript. The suite also includes Wonder Workshop’s Class Connect platform, giving teachers tools to track student progress, assign activities, and manage robotics projects. This suite supports NGSS, Common Core, and CSTA standards, providing educators with a reliable, standards-aligned framework to deliver STEM and coding education with confidence.
Ideal for classrooms, libraries, and makerspaces, the Make Wonder STEM Center Suite enables educators to create a learning environment where students can actively engage with coding and robotics concepts, fostering curiosity and preparing them for the future.
