Storytime Robotics
Grades 1-3
Grades 1-3
Students who ride the bus will arrive in time to eat breakfast before beginning the day. Parents dropping off students should bring them to the back of their school.
Students will collaborate to solve an engineering design and construction problem using their critical thinking skills, teamwork, and creativity. These short challenges will start the day to help students get in an engineering frame of mind.
Students will learn how to work with robots - and each other! Beginning robotics students will learn what robots, and then move right to robot programming so that their robot can interact with their story.
Students will continue to design and build their robot to meet the day's challenge of rescuing their village from the invading dragon! Students will learn computer science skills to program their robot to help gather the material they will need to construct their dragon fighting mechanism!
Lunch will be provided in the cafeteria.
You will test your robot against the course challenge to get ready for the end-of-the-day challenge. You will need all of your engineering, building, and programming skills to help your team win!
