In this lesson, the students practice using the color sensor while preparing for the next lesson. The field setup shown in Programming and Theory is an example, and you can make it however you like. Note that there is no blue ball because we have found that the color sensor sometimes detects blue out of nowhere. The program is a bit long, but it's not hard. The students might get overwhelmed by the number of tasks, but you can assure them that they are very repetitive and the end goal is worth it! This is also a good lesson to remind them that words can be translated into the program.

Level C2 - Cooperation - Robotics with LEGO SPIKE Prime
The sixth level of the Robotics with LEGO curriculum is designed for students in third or fourth grade.
For the first time, two different robots are required to solve a challenge. Students learn how to cooperate, agree on a shared plan, and divide their roles. They build a variety of robots, including a crane that loads a sorter. Students also use two sensors at the same time to locate their target and to check whether their partner robot is ready to complete its part of the challenge.
