Capture the Edison Flag
Notes
Prerequisites:
This lesson requires prior experience with Edison Robots.
Context:
This lesson can be taught to a single class or used in an after-school coding/robotics club.
Students should be given several days to complete the “design and construct” portion of this lesson.
The lesson finishes with a competition day followed by a day to reflect.
Objectives:
This week we will:
-Work with partners to design an obstacle course to protect our flag from opponents.
-Work with partners to modify our robot in order to capture an opponent’s flag.
-Objectively evaluate our design in order to make it better.
-Share with the class how we collaborated to complete our goal.

This is the 2nd lesson is a 2-part series. Students will expand their knowledge of Newton's laws while building, launching and changing the design of paper rockets. This design and modeling exercise
Rad Roller Coasters Part 2 comes at the end of our paper roller coaster project. Students will collect data on their coaster and use that to calculate velocity, potential energy and kinetic energy
This lesson will implement chain reactions and simple machines into a Rube Goldberg invention. Students will learn about the Rube Goldberg and his crazy inventions. They will then create their own
