Davis Creek Elementary Fifth Grade
September 2, 2003
The 23 students built projects from the
LEGO Educational
Motorized Simple Machine sets.
We connected over the Internet to the LEGO CITY.
Students used SENSORSCITY connection and camera
to teleoperate and receive back sensor data.
Also they operated the LEGO CITY through Red Rover and on its Internet version.The LEGO CITY at Marshall University
Mrs. Simon's class worked on building. Mrs. Simon sees how the LEGO City has a train to school.
Her school will go to the City for September.
The LEGO CITY looks big on the Gateway.
Bridge down and up.

When a large group works, mostly what is noticed is the problems.
Counting the number of studs in a beam is not done
and the project needs to be fixed after a few more steps instead of being looked at the time.
Wrong length axles are used. The placement of parts on the base are off by a few studs.
In small group work, how parts work is mostly noted like the use of gears and pulleys..
Mrs. Hamilton Brought Mrs. Simon's School to the LEGO CITY.
