Constructing a Color Sorter with Wonder Dash Robot
The lesson objective to introduce students to the engineering process. Students will be able to implement basic engineering concepts and problem-solving skills using the Wonder Dash robot and LEGO bricks. The students will work in a small group of 2-3 students to collaboratively to design and build a color sorter using LEGOs and program the Wonder Dash robot to sort different colored objects. Students will finalize their understanding of data classification by counting how many items they sorted of a given color and graph their results.

Students will use a Sphero bot to collect data on the actual speed of the Sphero bot and use the data to make predictions as to how far the bot will travel in a given time frame.
This lesson combines ELA (reading and discussing the story), engineering (design a balloon with materials given and attach the balloon to an EdBot), and technology (code an EdBot to run the parade
Students will use engineering, art, technology, and 21st century skills to create Halloween costumes for their Sphero robots. Costumes will be showcased in a Halloween parade where students will code
