Into it...

Hey Gentlemen!

So far we've organized ourselves and seen what it is that we need to get, parts wise to complete the robot challenges you've set for yourself. As we move further into the project (and wait for parts to come in) you'll begin working through the Robotics Engineering Vol. 1 programming modules.

For the modules remember the following:
1. They are video based - please use headphones out of courtesy for your classmates
2. You are responsible for modules 1-6
3. Print out the completed program boards for each module
4. Answer the worksheet questions for each module

More to come! You guys are all doing great - keep up the good work!

Life and Vanilla Ice Cream

We're off to a great start! As we end our first week before the break, we've begun to think about what a robot is and what a robot does. The choices before each of you involve deciding what type of robot to create. Further you face the challenge of working with a partner throughout this process. Remember to keep an open mind! Life without challenge is like vanilla ice cream without chocolate sauce.

Enter break knowing that you've given yourself a great start to the next several weeks!

Welcome to Class!

Welcome boys!

Mr. Martin and I are very excited to begin working with you all. As a reminder, today we covered the class rules -
1. Pay attention
2. Be respectful

In the following weeks, we'll all be working very hard to help each of you create an individualized experience. I look forward to it!
