Second grade has been hard at work with Robotics. They are using the Lego WeDo Robotics materials for this unit. They worked with a partner to build their robots and then program them to complete a challenge. They learned how to sequence steps in solving problems; how to find that one small piece that is making the whole thing not work; how to have tenacity to keep going even when they are stuck and frustrated; how to work as a team and collaborate on a weeks-long project; and how to celebrate each other's accomplishments with building and programming. I am so proud of all of their hard work with this project! Next year as 3rd graders they will work with these same kits, but at a much harder level. I think they are ready!
