Great job tonight code crackers! You programmed Billy to complete his tasks, discussed robot design, and learned more about the point values of some of the challenges. 😜

 

Here are the URLs to the videos we watched tonight:

Core Values Game:
Robot Games: We set up five green bins on the floor. We put items in some bins. One volunteer chooses to be the robot. The robot is blind folded and can only move when given a command.

The rest of the team are programmers. They are only allowed to give the robot one command at a time. The programmers sit in a row. Each programmer gives a command and the robot follows exactly. If a programmer makes a mistake, he/she can not fix it. It is the next programmers job to get the robot to do the task. The team tries to get their robot to complete the task in the least amount of moves.


Sample Tasks: 
Retrieve the rubber duck from bin one and put it in bin four.
Take the banana from big 3 and bring it back to programmer one.
Take everything from bin two and place in bin five.

Sample Commands:
Turn to your right
Take five steps forward
Reach into the bin
Retrieve the banana
Turn to your left
Turn 180 degrees

The kids had fun programming and taking turns being the robot.
