Tech (Robotics)

LI: To learn the basics of how to code an mbot.

As it is currently level 2 of the lock down we carried on like it was like a normal school day and went to tech at Tamaki College. For tech we had a new subject which was robotics and our teacher for today was Miss Ferguson. With robotics we were given a mbot which is a type of coding robot. Mbot can do all sorts of things like move in different shapes and move forwards and backwards. First we learn the basics of how to code an Mbot. The movements that we had to put in out Mbot was to make it move into a square which is not hard. We had to precisely get it to move at a 90* angle then do it again until it reaches its starting point. Then at the end of your coding to make it more interesting we had to make a victory dance when it reaches the end so it can be proud of its self for making it.

This week for maths I had to make a DLO explaining the strategy I used to solve this equation. This was a really fun challenge to do since it got my brain going.

These people can be from the 17s or the 18's, this is so great to learn about all the people that kept on inspiring other people to be like them. Some people would call these people Composer. I decided to write about John Adams because of how exiting his music and catch's people's attention when he is playing pieces of his music.
