5. Procedures
1) Get an individual Bee-Bot.
2) Look through new ‘routes’ and choose a route.
(Children can have different levels of line routes depending on their ages and understanding.)
Level 1
Level 2
Level 3
3) Think about what commands Bee-Bots need to move along with the lines.
4) Have free time to make individual Bee-Bots move along with the lines.
- Our Bee-Bots can learn how to move only when we give them commands by pushing command
buttons.
If we move Bee-Bots with our hands, they can’t learn.
- In this place, what command do you need to give to your Bee-Bot to make it turn?
5. Design and decorate around each route.
6. Show how my Bee-Bots move along with the lines to others.
- Who wants to show how you program your Bee-Bot?
- What commands did you use for your programming?
6. Review of Today’s Activity.
- Programming means that we teach our Bee-Bots to move in the way we want by giving several
commands at once.
- If we give our Bee-Bots several commands at once before pushing the GO button, we can make them
move without stopping.
