Robotics Competition

By Addyson Markey

 

We are having an amazing time with the Robotics Competition. Our mission is to get Dash the robot to investigate an island that mysteriously appeared when the Solar Eclipse happened. Mission One is hard but we're getting the hang of it. It is challenging because we need to program Dash with two different apps and get him through all the squares. The Wonder app doesn't allow you to repeat the actions. Using Dash for computational thinking is very good for your brain. Each team uses three brains to figure out the problems which is better than one brain. Each team does help other teams out. This has been a great experience.

Team Members: Sophie Wensel, Prisha Patel, Clayton Brandstedter, Ryan Klinedinst, Makenna Young, Adyson Markey, Kye Dinterman, Kolt Motley, Alexya McFadden, Aaron Wilson, Makayla Bosserman, Tyler Einsig, Sam Fair, Addison Reed

Family Forum: Leveraging Learning with Technology

            Twenty- three Hayshire learners shared with the families how they are using technology to help them in their learning. Hayshire children learn in many ways: auditory, visual, hands-on, in partners, in small groups, in large group, and independently. There are many avenues of learning: paper-pencil, artwork, playdough, blocks, books, discussion, hands-on materials, and technology. At the Family Forum, learners talked about their learning using Schoology, See Saw, Book Creator, Green Screen, Osmo, Robotics, Mindfulness Apps, Reflex Math, and more! The student-led Ripples group shared the work they are doing designing a website with Hayshire Proud learning!
