Lesson Plan

A10: The Rainbow Light (Loops)

In this lesson, students will experiment and familiarize themselves with the LED light coding blocks. Students will use the LED light coding blocks and repeat coding blocks to create a beautiful rainbow light.

Gr. 3–8en

3

Lesson Plan

A11: The Beating Heart (Loops)

In this lesson, students will understand the principle of generating animation. They will use the "show image" coding blocks and "repeat" coding block to display the beating heart on Vinci-Bot's dot matrix screen.

Gr. 3–8en

4

Lesson Plan

B1: VinciBot is Pretending to be Sleepy (Events)

In this lesson, students will familiarize themselves with the "new event" coding block. Students will also use the "wait block" and lights to make the Vinci-Bot look like its sleeping.

Gr. 3–8en

5

Lesson Plan

B6: VinciBot Loves to Draw 1 (Loops)

In this introductory lesson, students will learn how to draw with VinciBot and program VinciBot to draw simple shapes using the washable marker and motion blocks.

Gr. 3–8en

6

Lesson Plan

B9: Sweeping VinciBot (Loops)

In this introductory lesson, students will learn how to program VinciBot to draw more complex shapes, such as a cross and arrow. Students will be given time to allow for their artistic creations to shine based on the shapes they create.

Gr. 3–8en

7

Lesson Plan

C1: Autopilot 1 (Conditionals)

In this lesson, students will learn how to utilize the "wait until" statement in the conditional statement to allow Vinci-Bot to automatically bypass obstacles when moving around.

Gr. 3–8en

8

Lesson Plan

C5: Light-On Reminder (Conditionals)

In this lesson, students will learn about if-then statements and apply that to the light sensor so that Vinci-Bot prompts the owner to turn on the light via voice and light flashes.

Gr. 3–8en

9

Lesson Plan

C10: Twinkle Twinkle Little Star (Functions)

In this lesson, students will learn to utilize basic functional statements in music programs to create efficient and organized codes for repeated sections of music.

Gr. 3–8en

10

Lesson Plan

D1: The Magic Air Piano (Conditionals)

In this lesson, students will learn how to utilize the coding blocks "and, or, and not" to design an "air piano" that plays different notes based on sensor input.

Gr. 3–8en

11

Lesson Plan

D3: Close Friends (Conditionals)

In this lesson, students will utilize the ToF (time-of-flight) ranging sensor to program VinciBot to interact with a little toy.

Gr. 3–8en

12

Lesson Plan

D5: Spiral Graphics (Variables)

In this lesson, students will be able to explain the structure and characteristics of spiral graphics and use programming variables to command VinciBot to draw spiral graphics.

Gr. 3–8en

13

Lesson Plan

E1: Smart Cruise (Conditionals)

In this lesson, students will learn how to utilize utilize nested "if…then…else" statements to program VinciBot to detect the distance from a vehicle (obstacle) in front and adjust its running speed accordingly.

Gr. 3–8en

14

Lesson Plan

E2: VinciBot Radar (Conditionals)

In this lesson, students will learn how radar works and program VinciBot to detect and respond to obstacles based on distance.

Gr. 3–8en

15

Lesson Plan

E6: Traffic Statistics (Infrared Communication)

In this lesson, students will learn the concept of infrared communication and use infrared communication to make two VinciBots cooperate in determining the real-time number of people in the "park."

Gr. 3–8en
