Lesson plans for September 29 until November 7th for Robotics


9/29-11/7
Period- 6
Concepts Addressed and DAILY lessons:

We will have received our materials from the BEST robotics competition kick off rally and will be working daily on designs and building.  We have 40 days to work and build a robot that can transport materials over damaged roadway, open a bridge gate, push a button to gain entry to the playing field, and build a windmill.  The robot will have to be built, programmed, and practiced within 40 days, and the robot has 3 minutes to achieve all these goals.  Needless to say…..these goals will be our daily goal until November 8th, which is game day!!!!

PERIODIC TABLE TEST!!! BE STUDYING!!! DATE HAS CHANGED DUE TO 9 WEEKS TEST.....

Study for Periodic Table test 
1-36 Regular, 
1-54 Advanced- quiz 
Oct. 6
Must know symbol, placement of symbol, and element name spelled correctly!!!!!
