Fifth Grade Robots

Fifth Graders are finishing their robots. They learned a lot from a slide show about all the uses of Robots in medicine, factory work, etc. They were required to fill the page with their drawing, include 3-D drawn parts,  have a door, and look mechanical and metal.  Metallic watercolors helped with the metal-looking part, as did seams and screws, The finished artworks are heading to Mrs. Wenzel in Media. She has been teaching the students about circuits. Thanks to our Art to Remember Funds, I was able to purchase supplies for the students to actually build a circuit, with Mrs. Wenzel, using led lights on their robots! A battery behind the door supplies the energy for the lights!
Thanks to Dryden art for the idea and examples.
