Rooms 9, 10 and 11 begin discovering scribble bots.

Room's 9, 10 and 11 have begun to explore motion and forces through creating scribble bots.
We needed to explore creating a circuit with battery and motor. This was attached to a plastic cup with pens attached. We explored how to create motion, making the scribble bot move across paper to scribble. It was amazing to see how different the scribble bots were despite everyone using the same equipment.
We had to use good questions to solve problems. We had to think how to create a vibration and using an off-set weight to the motor to create movement.
Our second session gave us the opportunity to think about variables and how we could change one variable to improve our prototype. We also had to think and hypotheses to how changing one variable would improve our scribble bots.
