Using Robots to Complete Tasks

2/20/2018

 
Fifth graders have successfully built their robot chassis and practiced navigating their robot with a controller. Their first robotic task to complete involved collecting three blocks in under two minutes on a playing field. Students had to work with their team to design a robot that could help them accomplish this task. They then had to run three trials to test their design. I so proud to report that all teams were successful at designing their robot to complete this task! One team even figured out a design that allow them to collect the blocks in only 15 seconds!

    This is my tenth year teaching and my second with Ann Arbor Public Schools.  I spent the first eight years of my teaching career as a K-8 technology teacher. I joined AAPS last year as a Media Specialist and I am thrilled to be a part of PLTW this year! In my spare time I enjoy going to the gym, baking and spending time with family and friends!
