Planning Questions
Who am I working with?
-I am working by myself.
What materials will need?
-I will need A comupter, Legos, marker, and the robots.
What is your plan to create in this project?
-I will start with the dash and then move on to the other robots.
What unique qualities will your project have?
My project will have a cool battle
Day 1
I learned on what to do and how we were doing things.
Day 2
I learned how to connect and use the robot I wanted to code and make my project from.
Day 3
Today I worked just a tad bit on code and programming the dash.
Day 4
Today I experimented with different codes on how to make the dash do what I want.
Day 5
Today I coded my robot more and I built more to the catapult .I also tried a few test launches. I Finished the catapult.
Day 6
I started on the party bomb. I got some ideas from my friends on what to do,
Day 7
I experimented with code and was helped by another friend.
Day 8
I was getting close to done, I had to just finish some code.
Day 9
I made a video for the party bomb and started on the 3 letter word drawing robot guy(Irobot).
Day 10
I got my supplies and started coding. I felt like this would be an easier task to complete.
Day 11
I put in some movement code to make it make the 3 letter word.(MAr) And I made a video.
Day 12
I Started on the Sphero Mini and again It wasn't A hard task, i started with some simple movement code to make it do the shapes. The square and triangle were easy.
I used some code to make a loop for the cercle.
For my project i wanted to make a battle ram and battle my friend that had spear things.
Using legos and Blocky, I created a big battle ram because me and brayden wanted yo use the dashes and battle each other. I also made and coded different robots involving tasks.
During this process, I learned how to code 4 different types of robots and how they work.
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 Knowledge Constructor because I struggled with making the robot jump so i used a search engine to help me find out how to make it jump.
A challenge I overcame on this project was figuring out how to make the catapult work, the dash could only move its head so far up and down and so fast. I was able to do it by finding a sweet spot where i would make the dash move its head to the side and up at the same time for height and speed.
Given a chance to do this again, I would change a the battle ram in my project . The reason why I would change it is because there would have been better weapons like a spear, but a battle ram is too big and too heavy.
