400
Why is discovery important?
It helps us learn new things and solve problems!
400
How can we solve problems when something goes wrong?
By testing, troubleshooting, and going through our design or code step-by step.
400
Why is it important to build with the right LEGO parts?
Using the wrong parts can damage the robot
400
How do sensors make your code more reliable?
They help the robot react to real conditions.
400
Why should you keep your wires untangled?
Tangles wires can affect the robot's movement and it might mess with your code so it doesn't work like it should
500
Why do we need to make an impact?
We can use our learning to help shape the world around us and make it a better place!
500
Why is teamwork important when building the starter robot?

500
What is this motor used for?
Attachments
500
How does a touch sensor work?
It keeps the robot from crashing by alerting it if a red piece sticking out is pressed.
500
Why is coding important?
We can tell a program what we want something to do in terms we understand, and the program sends it to whatever we want to execute the code in terms the computer will understand
