In November 4th classes have been working on Robotics with student teachers from DCU.
We followed the LEGO Education WeDo 2.0 programme on the Ipads and built using our LEGO WeDo sets.
"WeDo is a primary education resource developed for younger primary school pupils as an introduction to control technology and programming using robotics. WeDo 2.0 makes primary school science and computing come to life through hands-on tasks, real-world projects, and relevant technology that engages pupils.
Through project-based activities, pupils’ skills are enhanced across science, coding, engineering and technology. The unique combination of the LEGO® brick, classroom-friendly software, and inspiring, curriculum-relevant science projects results in a resource that builds pupils’ confidence. It empowers them to ask the right questions, define problems, and design their own solutions by putting scientific discovery in their hands."

We built our robots and investigated forces such as speed and pulling. We learned and improved lots of skills; teamwork, constructing, coding, experimenting and testing as well as having so much fun!
