Procedure

Students will construct the duck robot

on pages….

Add program so the duck will move

At the end of the process, students will

write an opinion piece on the

importance of robots in society

In the end, ducks should follow the

programming procedure which will

allow it to move when there is nothing

in front of it, and stop when

something is in front of it.

The students will have improved their

skills involving the standards S4P3 as

well as ELACC4W3

The instructions we had were easy to

follow. It helped to have been told

beforehand to pay attention to which

way each piece is supposed to be

placed.

This activity would be good for upper

elementary school students

Allows the students to work hands on

with the technology

Duck Robot

Programing the duck

Technology is a huge part of our

everyday lives

Often something that gets overlooked

in the classroom

This activity can help to introduce

them to different technology
