Bee-Bot Board Game
by Danielle Houseman
Create a Bee-Bot board game, and program the Bee-Bot to move through the game board. Students will use the steps of the engineering design process as they work as a team to create and play their game. Students will need a game board (butcher paper), Bee-Bot, student planning pages, and markers or crayons. Optional materials include dice or other manipulatives. The lesson begins with a review of programming and Bee-Bot commands, then introduces the game board criteria. Finally, students imagine, plan, and create the game board.
