Bumper Car

Math Field Day 4th Grade Winners
February 9, 2005

Juan worked with the fifth grade TAG the hour before I came.  Our paths crossed outside the office.
He put the LEGO Camera pictures of his LEGO activity on his memory stick.
I got to work with the fourth grade Math class.  Mrs. Chenoweth told me they won the Math Field day.

As they were building the Bumper Car from the Amusement park set, we checked out the motors and light.
We used one motor as a dynamo to generate electricity to move the other motor and turn on the light.
The batteries were not charged so we will be using the adapter.

The program on RoboLab is way too fast for a wire.

We are working on slowing it down.

This group will work each Wednesday for the next few months.
