___Challenge 1: Build you Robot
Use your building guide (instruction book). Build the Robot on Pg 4-38,
54-68, and 41-46.
When you are done, have your robot checked by Mr. L.
Now you will begin using the iPads to program your robots. One partner should go get an iPad
from the cart. REMEMBER YOUR NUMBER/COLOR. Use the same iPad every day.
-) When you add a motion brick to make it move straight, it may look like this:
This block makes your robot move forever or until a sensor is triggered.
This block allows you to control how long your robot moves.
-) To make your robot turn, you use this brick. The larger the turn number, to quicker
and sharper that the robot will turn.
Challenge 2
-) To make a program, you simply link the blocks together in the order you
want the robot to do them, from top to bottom.
-) Try making your perfect square. HINT: you will need four movement
blocks and four turn blocks.
-) For this challenge, you will need to use the ULTRASONIC SENSOR and its controls,
which use light blue Scratch blocks. You will specifically need to use an

object.
-) Remember that when you program the robot, you must tell it every step that it must
do. It only does what you say, so if it needs to STOP doing something, you must program
that in as well. So, think about it step-by-step:
1) Go forward Challenge 3
2) Wait until you are 15 cm
3) Go backwards for 2 seconds
4) Stop
-) Finally, bring your robot to the testing zone. Have Mr. L test your robot. Remember
Challenge 2 needs your robot to also reverse for exactly 2 seconds. When you pass your
challenge, you will get my initial.
-) Here is what the block will look like for your program.
-) When you are ready, bring your robot to Mr. L in the test zone to check off this challenge.
