4th Grade Tech Is The Best by Dillon



Right now our class is working on making robots. My group is working on making a robot that can floss. With a material called littleBits. Other people are working on Lego robotics and Dot and Dash. Some groups are programming with Hummingbird robotics. I think that everybody in this class is having lots of fun.

Floss Like a Boss by Daniel


Today we are making a flossing dog with my group. We are building it out of cardboard and then we are going to make its arms move with littleBits to look like it is flossing. We are hoping we can finish it in time (insert dramatic music here: dooo dooo dooo). We have six class periods total so we made a timeline for ourselves. Once we finish, I hope the class photographer could maybe take a picture and we can post it. We want to share our project with the world so other viewers can see our hard work. 

Binary Bracelets by Alanna


Today we are making bracelets with beads but, we are using the binary codes and different colors. We are also doing the binary code with our initials. It is so much fun! We learned that in binary most of the time you only need the numbers 1 and 0. Binary numbers allow computers to store and transmit data. Making bracelets is so much fun!     

Sphero Mini Golf by Aubrey


We are working on how our projects accommodate people with disabilities. For example, we created Sphero mini golf. It accommodates people who may have hearing loss by relying on visuals to tell the player if they got a hole in one. We carefully placed flags in front of each hole to put your attention on the location of the hole. We are most proud of the fact that it is a fun game that does not require the player to walk around. They can stay in one spot and control the Sphero. This helps people who have limited mobility because they can play whether they are in a wheelchair or not. You should come try Sphero mini golf. It is a very fun game!

Lego Claw Machine by Devin


We are making a claw machine out of Legos. It is a hard to have the right pieces at the right time. It is easy to use your imagination and  create prizes. We are learning to cooperate with each other. We are doing a great job. 

Lego Paradise by Aaron, Devin, and Drew


My group is working on a Lego Claw machine. The part where we have to cut the cardboard is pretty hard for us. Some thing easy to do is making the prizes. My group is leaning to do Lego robotics. We are making a claw machine with the robotics.
