Challenge 1
Planning Questions
Are you working by yourself or in a team?
I will be working with Dorian What materials will you need for your project?
A robot
What is your plan to create in this project?
We will be trying to throw a tire
What unique qualities will your project have?
We will use legos
So Me and Dorian where trying to throw the tire and we tried a couple ways.
We really couldn't get the tire to go very far we tried a couple of different ways but still couldn't get it very far.
Using , I created a robot that throws tires because I picked this project out of the 4 we could do.
During this process, I learned more about the website Blocky.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Computational Thinking because I used a computer and other tools to help solve a coding problem.
A challenge I overcame on this project was trying to get the tire to move off the platform. I was able to do it by trying different ways of the Lego build.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change the power to the robot. The reason why I would change it is because I couldn't get it that far.

My project connects to the Computer programming CTE program at Hastings High School. My project connects to careers in building and coding robots.
We coded it to spin so the tire would fly off
Same thing but different angle.
Daily Log
Day 1: Me and Dorian were programing our robot to try and throw the tire
Day 2: Doing my website
Challenge 2
Planning Questions
Are you working by yourself or in a team?
I will be working with Dorian
What materials will you need for your project?
A Sphero Mini and an Ipad
What is your plan to create in this project?
My plan is to code it to make a square and to have some color
What unique qualities will your project have?
It will have different colors
Daily Log
Day 1: Me and Dorian stated coding and made the Sphero Mini make a square
Day 2: Doing my website
Day 3: Doing my website
This is my video. You can see that my Sphero Mini makes a square and blinks colors.
Using, a Sphero Mini , I created a robot making a square because me and my partner decided to do this project out of the four we can choose from.
During this process, I learned how to code a sphero mini.
The 7 standards of the class are Empowered Learner, Digital Citizen, Knowledge Constructor, Innovative Designer, Computational Thinker, Creative Communicator, and Global Collaborator. My project ties to Innovative Designer because I design things to solve problems and improve.
A challenge I overcame on this project was trying to code it to make a square . I was able to do it by trying to see what the codes mean and I eventually got it.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change how simple this project was. The reason why I would change it is because it was kind of easy to code once I got the hang of it.
