Ms. Erny's multi-age class, consisting of K, 1st, and 2nd graders, worked together to build Lego WeDo Machines. The students used the Lego WeDo kits to build the simple machines and then programmed them using the Lego WeDo software. Some of the machines were simple, such as an alligator that opens and shuts its mouth, while others were more complicated. The students worked all week learning about robotics, simple machines, and programming. Check out their special segment on Eagle Eye News here.
