Grade 4 Students Accept the Wonder League Robotics Challenge



Grade 4 students at St. Rose Elementary were eager to get down to work on Mission One of the Wonder League's Robotics Challenge.  Students had the task of moving Dash around the grid while avoiding predetermined obstacles.  Points are given for the number of squares travelled through, lights, sounds and extra effects as well as the ability to code in both Blockly and the Wonder App





The Wonder League Robotics Competition includes three challenges, each one broken down into three missions.  Students have until February 2018 to submit their responses in the hopes of being selected among 1000 teams competing for the final challenge.
