I spent 25 years teaching in a public school district in Ohio. I have had the opportunity to teach every grade from 3rd to 12th. My most recent area was computer science and robotics in middle school and high school.
The Obstacle Course Robot is a problem based learning activity created to be used with the LEGO SPIKE Prime kit. The Mindstorms Robot Inventor can be substituted for the SPIKE Prime. This activity will take students through a series of lessons to help program a drivebase through an obstacle course. The obstace course will walk students through programming: a motor pair to move forward and turn.a color sensor to sense colors in order to follow a line and stop.a distance sensor to see walls to nav

These worksheets can be used to learn how to measure the circumference of the LEGO SPIKE Prime wheel and use this information to calculate how many rotations or degrees to enter into the program. This is a great way to integrate mathematics into your programming for a STEAM lesson. The worksheets can be used for programming in word blocks or Python.
Increase engagement and integrate coding into your math class by creating a program that will roll a die on the light matrix of the LEGO SPIKE Prime. This video will walk students through making the program that will randomly roll and then create a bar graph with the results.
This guide helps understand the basics of programming the LEGO SPIKE Prime using Python. This explains the different parts of a Python program and also shows how to use the Knowledge Base to help in writing programs. This guide references the SPIKE App 2.0.1.
