Robotics Teacher Resources

A thought-provoking resource examines the future of automation and the effects on employment. Academics read informational text, complete written prompts, and participate in activities to understand automation and the possibilities for...

Students identify and label the different parts of a robot, rover, or a spacecraft. They discuss and record all of the features their robot will need to accomplish its mission and be able to explain why they chose these features to...

Fifth graders study how to read fluently. In this reading lesson, 5th graders practice reading and recording any miscues. Students time each other and graph their progress each day.

Learners explore the two kinds of fluids: liquids and gases. They explain that liquids (water), unlike gases (air), cannot be compressed. This property makes them ideal for hydraulic work applications.

In this circuits activity students complete a series of questions on equations, robotics and integration.  There is an answer sheet. 

A fun presentation will delight your young mathematicians! Learners encounter a "robot" whose parts all have addition and subtraction problems in them. Each time a problem is solved correctly, that part of the robot disappears, until...

In this math worksheet, students examine 5 sets of pictures of machines and robots. Students count the objects in each set and write the number in the blank.

Do you think, therefore you are? Or are you therefore you think? Are the mind and the body one or separate? Introduce young philosophers (and science fiction fans) to the mind/body problem with a video that is sure to fascinate viewers.

Students calculate the length of an arc that surrounds an angle at the center of a circle of radius.  In this kinetic equations lesson students complete a lab and solve a kinematic equation.

Students will work in teams of 2 to read and discuss a case study. In this probability activity, students will learn the formula for finding the probability of two events occurring together. Students will learn the meaning of independent...

Students simulate driving a rover on the surface of Mars. In this space science lesson, students identify the challenges experienced by astronauts in operating a vehicle. They recommend some changes to make their 'rover' better.

Students identify the different types of measurements used in industry. In this technology lesson, students investigate how much power CEENBoT has. They collect data and graph results.

Young scholars explain the steps in the scientific method. In this inquiry lesson, students construct a CEENBoT using website directions. They diagnose and fix the problem after the teacher cause it to malfunction.

Students collect data and analyze the data using a graph. For this statistics lesson, students use combinations and theoretical and experimental probability to analyze their data. They observe a remote controlled robot as they collect data.

Learners solve linear equations using two steps. In this algebra lesson plan, students add, subtract, multiply and divide to solve linear equations. They apply concepts of equations to a robot pulling cargo.

Pupils identify the mean, median and mode of collected data. In this statistics lesson, students collect, graph and analyze data using central tendencies. They work in groups to collect data on a robot through an obstacle course.

Students solve negative exponential functions. In this algebra instructional activity, students define the properties for rewriting functions with negative and zero exponents. They use a robot to create a visual of what is happening to...

Students investigate the properties and idea of the Pythagorean Theorem. In this algebra lesson, students identify the different parts of a right triangle and relate it to the Pythagorean Theorem. They do a robotic experiment to...

Students identify the internal and external components of computers, robots and fan. In this physics lesson, students draw a circuit diagram of their electronic components. They create a battery tester in the lab.

Students identify the slope of a line as negative, positive, zero or undefined. In this algebra instructional activity, students identify the distance versus the time using graphs of linear equation. They use the robot and the...

Students find the different ratios of a triangle. In this geometry lesson, students use the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for missing sides and angles on a right triangle. They use a robot to create a right triangle.

Students identify the equation to represent a circle. In this algebra lesson, students review properties of conics and how they are related. they use a robot to create a visual of circles and their application to the real world.

Six pages prepare you to introduce your math stars to the addition and subtraction of positive and negative numbers. They drive a robot back and forth on an actual number line to represent the operations. If you don't have access to a...

In this writing prompt worksheet, students use their writing skills to write a composition based on the picture and prompt regarding a robot.
