Robot Vehicle: Part 1
by Tina Martinez
Students will use the materials provided to engineer a vehicle that is powered by a robot and deliver a treat to a chosen location. Students will use the robots you have. I use Sphero and Edison robots. Materials that are easily available - boxes, wheels, CD's, milk lids, straws, sticks, cardboard, etc.
This is Part 1 - Research & Plan. Link to Part 2 & 3 is included. This lesson combines Engineering, Robotics, and Math.
