Directions:
- Using a sheet of paper design a flat roller coaster track for Evo using the PENCIL or PEN. Be sure to follow the rules for how the Ozobot can move linked here.
- Once you have a track on one sheet, feel free to add additional sheets, just make sure the track from one sheet links up with the track on the next and so on.
- Add color codes from the Color Code pdf to make Evo's ride more exciting.
- Now that you have your coaster designed, trace over your pencil/pen version using the black marker. Don't forget to stop your black line each time you reach a color code. Continue with the black marker until your entire roller coaster is covered in marker. Hint: go back and make sure the line thickness is consistent throughout the entire path.
- Make sure you end your code with a Win/Exit code.
- Place your Ozobot Evo at the beginning of your roller coaster and press his Power button to watch him go for a ride.
Alternative 1: Can you design the smallest coaster containing at least two color codes? Remember that roller coasters take the riders back to the start, so Evo's tiny coaster should end at the beginning so he can begin again.
Alternative 2: Make a 3D coaster. Use building blocks and ramps to scaffold a more realistic coaster. Draw your codes and lines on paper, cut them out and paste onto the track so Evo has a path to follow. Check out this image for inspiration.
