My students will be using the Lego WeDo 2.0 robots to explore different science topics by making robots based on a science topic and then researching that topic after they build the robot. One of the robots they can create is an earthquake simulator. After they build the simulator, they will research the causes of earthquakes and how much force it takes to knock down different sizes of buildings. Most of my students have probably used legos at home, but very few have never transformed their creations into robots. They will see that their lego creations can be related to science topics all around them. This lego kit will also help a group of students work together. I will put them in small groups and they will have to assign themselves roles in the group, so that no one is doing all the work by themselves. They will also break up the research together. At the end of this project, the students will grade how well they did in their groups as well as their groups members, using a number scale.
