Robot Building in Tech Class by Luana

We are making robots with different materials like Sphero, Dash and Dot, and lots more! We can use whatever we need to program or make something for our robot to use. It's up to our group to make something that will make the robot be awesome!

Our Robotics Projects Rock!

Check out the fun we had while learning drag and drop programming and designing creative activities:
Light It Up with littleBits by Ashtyn, Jordan and Sierra
Dental Patient with Hummingbird Robotics Kit by Dillon, Emily and Falyn
Dot and Dash in Their Home by Blake, Davis, and Cameron
Noah's Ark with Lego Robotics by Marisa, Jacob, and Dylan
Soccer Game with Referee with Scratch and Makey Makey by Hailey, Jeremy and Layla
Combo Course for Sphero with Aidan, Jared, and Sam

Juke Ball with Sphero by Jared

My group and I are working with Sphero. Sphero is a ball that you can program to move, light up, say something and more. My group has settled on an idea. The idea for our project is to have football players that Sphero has to juke out. I can't wait to see how this turns out.

Dazzled by These Presentations!

This is our first round of tech exploratory projects and they are impressive! We put a lot of thought into our presentation skills, in addition to our actual projects. We loved learning and growing together. Check out what we have made (so far):

Movable Gymnast with littleBits Rube Goldberg Machine Style

Sphero as a Pig Going Home

Soccer Kicker with Hummingbird Robotics

Pacman made with Scratch and Makey Makey

A Ticket Booth and Ferris Wheel with Lego Robotics

Dot and Dash with Blockly

Getting Spooky with Dot and Dash by Jeremy

In Technology Exploratory, we are coding a Dot and Dash robot to go through a haunted house maze to find Dot who will be hidden. I am in a group of three and we are working together to do it. It is so much fun! 

Presentations, Round Two!

Dash by Daniel, Alyssa, and Dillon
Nyan Cat by Ryder, Zanden, and Joey
Sphero Golf Course by Jolie and Eli
Lego Robotics by Emmitt and Tyler
Dot and Dash by Lucas and Samantha
Robotic Yorkie by Carly and Hallie
Bowling Alley for Sphero by Romy and Allie
Dancing Girl by Remy, Sophia and Vivian

A Crane and A Crocodile with Lego Robotics, Then Our Own Creation by Emmitt

My partner and I are working with Lego Robotics. First, we are building a crane and a crocodile that can open its mouth. We are building from the book so that we can learn how to program and use the sensors. Then, we are going to make our own creation from our own imaginations. Some ideas that we are considering include a ferris wheel, a car, or a T.V. Finally, we will present our project and explain how we made it.
