The stairs in Village of Barboursville Elementary School have the top and bottom stair
a different color than the floor and than the middle stairs.
Might that help some who can not see clearly?
We read the "Late for Lunch" story.
Then we tested out different robot shapes and gearing.
Both tires and treads work.
Too high a center of gravity does not work.
Bigger tires on back or front works.
Treads have to be forward of the beams.
Only the one on the right works.
The girl on the front works better than on the back.
Just a small change of center of gravity can cause problems.
The bot can get the glasses, too.
