Robotics today

I spent my morning teaching Robotics to Hyrum's fifth grade class. I love watching their little minds turn as they try to solve the problems and get things working. Their next learning expedition is on US deserts. We started out by talking about animals that live in the deserts. We are basing our robotic challenges on the desert habitat. Today the goal was to build a robot that could weave its way through our herd of "wild mustangs". Thank heavens for Wal-mart's $1.00 bin of animals. It gave us plenty of horses for our experiments.
