A Rover’s Story - Rock and Roll Rover
by Lisa Boyer
When Res lands on Mars she will encounter various terrain that she must navigate successfully.
Can you create wheels that will help navigate her through the terrain? This is part one of a four part lesson plan that follows A Rover's Story. The objective of this lesson is for students to create wheels for their Edison robot to help navigate the terrain just like Res needs to do in the story.
