My Project

The materials such as the motors, cups, and adhesive foam squares in this project will provide my students with the opportunity to create their very own critter mini-robot. Students will use creativity to design a critter bot that is as unique as them.

Creativity, Collaboration, and Circuits - this project has it all!

Students will design their robot. Then students will learn about circuits that will enable their robot to move through vibrations. Finally, students will collaborate with their team to design a maze for their robots. When the maze is ready, students will send their robots through to see if the robots can successfully vibrate through their design.
