5. Procedures
1) Explore Grids (2x3 and 3x4)
- We can find several ways on this grid to go to the hive.
- Please make sure that you place your Bee-Bot in the middle of this square like this the picture to help
your Bee-Bot accurately move from one cell to another.

2) Find several routes to go to the hive by drawing the line on the paper sheet.
- First, your task is to find at least 2 different ways for your Bee-Bot to arrive at this hive.
- After finding each successful route, draw the route on this paper to show how your Bee-Bot moved.

3) Get individual Bee-Bots and Grids.
4) Have individual time to make Bee-Bots go to a hive from the starting point.
- What command do you need first to make your Bee-Bot as this route?
- Can you make your Bee-Bot move as this route at once?

5) Find different routes. (or change a 2x3 grid to 3x4 grid)
6) Share my routes and compare my routes with others.
- Can you show one route you found and how your Bee-Bot moved to go to the hive?
- Can you share your commands you used?
6. Review of Today’s Activity.
- Let’s pay attention to which direction my Bee-Bot faces before giving commands.
- If you give commands all together, you can make your Bee-Bot move at once without stop.
