Literacy and Robotics

• 5th graders at Falk Laboratory School in PA interpreted fables and then used their robots to demonstrate while they read the fables to primary students!
• Students interpret and analyze text through robotics.
• Low floor and high ceiling activity can be adjusted to readers of any level.
• Engage reluctant readers with a new take on literacy.

Human Body Systems with Robotics

• Students at Springdale Jr. High in PA used their research on the biomechanics of joint movement to create interactive models for their health & PE class.
• Research on any topic, in any subject, can lead to exciting robotics design challenges.
• Interdisciplinary explorations lead to deep subject learning.
