Robotics Update November 20

Students were working on organizing and categorizing their robotics kits. Once they assemble and had their kits together they began building their robots. As they were building they were looking at the common palette tasks 1 -11 on Lego Mindstorms NXT. Once they were confident coding their robots they began working on driving their robot around a course. This course tests them on the common palette tasks. Most students are currently at the stage where they are practicing this course. The students who completed the course are now working on the common palette 12- 20.
