Looking for a FIRST related game to play with kids
Our FIRST LEGO team i mentor just go back from our first ever event, and we exceeded our own expectations, we took a vote and our next meeting is going to be spent playing a robotics related game, the only problem is i do not know any game to play, therefore i come to you, it cant involve a lot of running around, or cant evolve any robots. Thank you for any suggestions. the age group is 5-8 grade

Re: Looking for a FIRST related game to play with kids
Do you mean something like a board game, e.g., Out of Gears https://elfinwerks.com/our-games
or an activity that involves acting the part of robots, e.g., http://www.sciencekids.co.nz/lessonp...ctivities.html or http://fun-a-day.com/robot-activities-kids-will-love/ ? Maybe reenacting the comet 67P chase and landing? Inventing a game that FLL robots could play and acting it out? |

"The Program Says"
Think Simon says, but with program statements. If you are just getting back from Lego, have the kids re-inact their program as best they can as a person. Once the students have mastered easy commands, you can add in counts and if statements and..... |

Play program the robot.
A coach or mentor is a robot and the kids have to try and get you to accomplish a simple task. Take everything very literally (ex. When they say turn left, start spinning to the left until they tell you to stop ) It seems to work to help our kids understand whey the robot doesn't do what they want it to do |
