Jiggle-Bots!

Grainwood 4th graders enthusiastically raced their Jiggle-Bots in the Media Center today as a culminating activity for their first E-STEM project.This highlighted the engineering and design process.

What is a Jiggle-Bot? Aryana explained that she was given a motor, battery, wires, and a switch. Students were directed to find recyclable objects from their homes that they could use to create a robot-like creature. Aryana stated that the most challenging part of the project was adding an object  that would "jiggle" her bot forward.
