Students utilize computer programs to operate a simple robot.  In this technology lesson, students create robots using Lego pieces and simple motors to move them.  Students measure the speed of the robots by running Robolab...

Students build and program a LEGO robotic car as well as measure and graph its speed. They acquire familiarity with principles of construction, motion, design and problem solving. They compare a robot's speed over two different surfaces...

Learners use Legos to build representations of a variety of numbers. They then sort and order their representations and pair them with the written number.

Learners participate in guessing their partners' hidden Lego pieces from their verbal clues. They work in partners to accomplish their goals. They are meeting a variety of math standards by completing this lesson.

Students construct a spacecraft out of Lego blocks and other materials. They work on their models in small groups while building. They become familar with the planets while working cooperatively.

Students read the novel Stone Fox by John Reynold Gardiner. Using Lego RCX units, students build and program sleds to re-enact the "home stretch" of the National Dog Sled Race.

Students work together to build lego cars. They make predictions about how fast they believe the cars will go. They record their observations and discuss their results.
