In this large room, 14 students are here to learn about gears, pulleys, levers, wheels and axles.
The first project uses gears at right angles and pulleys to allow for slippage near the motor.
The car was checked to see if there was a complete electric current path
and also to see f there was too much friction.
Depending on the direction the wire lead is connected, the two cars to a battery pack will go
the same direction or opposite.
The first team finished with disassembling and putting pieces back
did it in under 3 minutes.
Wiggle
Worm
The first challenge was to make a wiggle worm.
They were to make them as long as possible but short folded.
Lounge chair
For the last few minutes at the end,
the students built the chair
that can lean back at many angles.
Ready for summer!
They teleoperated the AppaLEGO City.
