1. Start here — Rocksi
Youngest builders and first-time coders (about ages 8–12). Snap code blocks together to move a robot arm and watch it pick things up. A gentle, visual way into robotics and how a machine follows instructions — no typing required.
2. Grades 6–8 — Robot Mission Lab
Middle school. A full robotics course with lessons, a brick-robot simulator you program to finish missions, and narration. Students move from simple moves to solving real challenges, step by step.
3. Grades 9–12 — Robot System Quest
High school and advanced students. Games and lessons that teach the ideas behind ROS 2 — the same robotics framework used in industry and research — through play. The bridge from classroom robotics to how professional robots are really programmed.
These are free, open-source tools made by other developers. They open on their own sites; Cyphermont Academy links to them as learning tools and doesn’t collect any data through them.
