Robotics Challenges

A few years ago the Greenfield Education Foundation purchased several Lego EV3 kits for the 8th Grade Academy. I use these kits primarily after MCAS testing in one of my quarter long classes. Students start by getting familiar with the basics of programming and movement. This year I decided to give students a Clean Sweep challenge (inspired by Dr. E's Challenges), but some students decided to go in their own direction. Here are three of the student-created programs created last week: Clean Sweep, Color Sorter, and Happy Birthday.
