Abstract: The objective of the study was to explore STEAM disciplines through robotics within the Future Classroom Lab (FCL) spaces, which challenge the learning of mathematical knowledge in Primary Education. The method used was quantitative and descriptive, based on data obtained from the mean and standard deviation through pre-test and post-test questionnaires, using Wilcoxon's W test to analyse data, together with an educational experience with robots. The sample consisted of students (n=12) aged 11-12 years. The results and conclusions of the study showed that students have a positive perception of learning mathematical knowledge through STEAM projects. Moreover, after the experience, students prefer to use FCL spaces to work on STEAM projects rather than the traditional classroom. Finally, after the experience with robots, students increased their interest in STEAM professions.
