Re: Suggestions for a middle school robotics curriculum

make up teams of a few kids and with their skills they have learned so far to make a bot that will complete the tasks. The tasks can get harder and harder.

Like week 1 maybe try to make a robot that will go through a simple course the fastest. Make it like a sqare or something. And you can eventually build it up to adding arms and other features to do things.

Before making challenges need manipulators do a manipulator lesson. Like how to make a simple arms that will just stay parallel to the surface it is driving on the turn 90 degrees upwards.
