How to Make Your Own Wobblebot

After making our wobblebots, Room 11 decided to share the fun and tell people how to make their own wobblebots. We hope you have as much fun as we did.

What Do We Do With An Idea?

Do ideas grow or are they just there? 

The next two weeks will see Room 11 reading this book and learning about our brains. Click on the image below to find out about our new learning and our new shared book.

Wobblebot Challenge

Room 11 have been problem solving up a storm. We were given the challenge of designing a wobblebot to travel the surface of the moon. We were given 3 flat batteries, 3 pager motors, a foam cup and other bits and pieces to create a winning Moonbot. First, we needed to work out how to power our bots, as we didn't actually know what we had been given at first. With a bit of tinkering, banging, sticking and trailing our moonbots were ready to go.

The challenge is on to find a new home for humans
