RV Robotics, Science, & STEAM ELD Week 1/5 - 9/2026

 Welcome back All!

Happy 2026.  The second half of the year has started.  This month will be busy as we get back into out routines.  There will be several breaks during the next 2 months so make sure to keep up with your work and get any help you need immediately.  Do let it wait.


As we start the new year, I want to remind you to be thoughtful of others as we all navigate this year.  There are a lot of people on our campus that are here for you.  If you need to talk or share something, talk to me or another trusted adult, we can help.

What have we done - Where are we going

  • Spheros - coded and experimented
  • Microbits - coded, added servos, created 2 simple working robots
  • 3D Design - introduced to basic concepts

Future Projects
  • Controlling UAS & UGS - drones and rovers
  • Building Lego Spike Robots
  • STEAM Faire - January 24 - battle bots, esports, Planetary exploration, drone obstacle course
  • Community Service Project

I propose ...

  1. We join the STEAM Expo
  2. You pick a project.  Some of the projects are only demonstrations so you do not have to attend on that day.  Your project will be displayed
  3. You pick a project.  Choosing to attend the event will mean that you have to be there to display your project
  4. We "lock in" and get a project put together in 3 WEEKS!
Sample project ideas - 
  • Navigate a UAV through an obstacle course (syma x5c)
  • Create a planetary exploration rover - Build and code a rover that can carry scientific equipment (camera) to explore a new terrain
  • Battle Bot competition/demonstration
  • Microbit Monster - add some more servos/sensors to control different movements
