Here are some questions to think about BEFORE you watch the mini-lesson:

1.) Do people at home really use robots?

2.) Do businesses and companies use robots? This should be an easy one if you think about what we have learned about in class!

Watch Part 1 and 2 of the video.

After watching the video, think about the following...

1.) Do you worry about robots "taking over" and doing too much?

2.) Do you think robots should be programmed with the ability to "think" for themselves and make decisions?

3.) Is there a chance robots could take over the world?! Yikes! We need to be careful!

Optional Bonus Activity: What's a chore that you do every week? Could you invent a robot to do it for you? Think like an inventor! Maybe a robot could make your bed, clean your room, or feed the dog! Once you know what you want your robot to do, think about the simplest robot that could do this task. To pour dog food into a bowl, for example, a robot might just need a way to hold the dog food and a way to know where the bowl is.
