Robots

A few weeks ago in our block centre we noticed our friends making "robots" out of our K'Nex toys. When we switched our toys to unifiix cubes we noticed that they were still interested in making robots. 

"The robot only moves if you put it on the floor and when you push the wheels back it sweeps up stuff. It's a sweeping robot." - Tessa

We asked our students if they wanted to build their own robot out of recycled materials. 

Thank you to all of our families who sent in recycled materials!

We "heard" lots of problem solving! 

"It won't stick, I need more glue."

"It keeps falling apart. I put too much on it."

"I don't know how to make a robot." "I can help you!"

We saw lots of friends sharing materials and working together to help fix their robot. We saw lots of TEAMWORK!
