Building Stories with Technology

We build all kinds of machines using Legos, motors, sensors and RCX bricks. We started by following Lego building instructions so that we could learn how to use the pieces, but we also try to create new machines using the things we learn.

Once we build something, we write a story for our machine and figure out how to program the RCX brick so that it tells the story. We also think about how our machine works and what real machines work in the same way.

Movies on these pages require the free QuickTime plug-in.
