3rd grade robotics

Our 3rd grade Little Longhorns are robotics experts!  They learned how to build and program their robots using the Lego WeDo kits.  They received a higher level programming challenge this year since they had some experience building from last year.  They rose to the challenge!  We were able to have soccer kickers, goalies, and cheerleaders all participate in our soccer match.  We are still building now, but I just couldn't wait to share what they have done so far!  Scroll all the way down for the video of the soccer match.

 It's challenging to find what went wrong and fix it

Programming takes a lot of tries before it's right.

Cheerleaders need motivational words!

Getting the kicker just right... the right power, the right amount of rotations.

We learned a lot and had a ton of fun!

Some of our goalies even keep score!  Advanced programming!

Kicker vs. Kicker who will score the goal?

Goalie vs Kicker

Their goalie keeps score!

Kickers, goalies, and cheerleaders all have important roles in a robotic soccer match!

Cheerleaders are important as well!

This kick resulted in a GGGOOOOAAAAALLLLL!

What a great kick!

Kicker vs goalie of a soccer match in action!

In the action of the soccer match!

Ms. Hernandez's class was the Blazers vs the Patriots and Ms. Wakim's class had 5 teams playing against each other: Underdogs vs. Choppers vs. Eagles vs. Cowboys vs Bulldogs
