Re: Suggestions for a middle school robotics curriculum

Thanks all for your suggestions, I greatly appreciate it.

Just as an update, the first session of my program was today, and it turns out there also will be younger patients ranging from 4-8 years old. Even though the curriculum was geared more toward middle schoolers, they still grasped onto the concepts of robust construction and even the programming.

I will have to alter my other lessons a bit, but I think I should be able to take the ideas you've offered and simplify them a bit so that this age group can actively participate with the robot as well. Again, thank you for your help.
