In order to do this, you must know how to use many programming blocks in one program. You must also know a few things about the motors as well. Finally, you must learn more about the settings of the Move block.
For about 5 minutes
Try the yo-yo yourself for no more than five minutes.
You are not expected to solve it in just five minutes. Simply try your hand with the task and see where the challenging part is. Experiment with the software.
Then return to the course and watch the rest of the videos where we have your problems covered.
English
Previously we've learned how to move the robot forward. In this module we'll continue and at the end we'll have a program that makes the robot work like a Yo-yo forward, backward. Now to learn this we must expand our knowledge with a few things. First, we must learn how to use a number of blocks, we must learn a few more things about the motors. And a few more things about the blocks that program the motors and the configurations of these blocks, the settings. Again, at the end we'll have a Yo-yo challenge and with this we can then control most of the movements of our robots.

Level A1. Introduction. Robotics with LEGO
Introduction to robotics - The first level of the Robotics with LEGO curriculum for students in second, third or fourth grades. A journey in space, with robots. Various constructions with robots are built. Learn how to control the motors so that the robot navigates around the Sun, the Moon and Earth in various ways. Getting to know the first of the sensors. The robot can feel its surroundings with the help of the Touch sensor and avoid obstacles.

Lesson 2 - Yo-yo challenge
Introduction
Today we will learn to program the robot to perform more than just one action, as well as program it to move like a yo-yo. Have you ever played with a yo-yo? How does it move? Did you know that from Filipino yo-yo means "to return".

Robotics with LEGO - Level 1.0 - Adventure in Space
The first level of the Robotics with LEGO curriculum for students in fifth to twelfth grades.
Various constructions with robots are built. Learn how to control the motors so that the robot navigates around the Moon and Earth in various ways. Getting to know the first two sensors. The robot can feel its surroundings with the help of the Touch sensor and avoid obstacles.
The Ultrasonic distance sensor can help the robot avoid obstacles. Students work with concepts like loop, degrees and medium motor. Robots can now do two different actions at the same time - while solving missions on a field, the third motor clears detected obstacles.

Lesson 1 - Moving like a Yo-Yo
Introduction
Today, you will get to know your classmates and your teacher, learn how the lessons are conducted, construct your first robot, and learn how to program it to move. The end goal of this lesson is to make the robot move like a Yo-Yo. How does a Yo-Yo move?
If you have ever owned a Yo-Yo, you know that it's meant to fall down and rise back up to your hand. But in order for it to move successfully, we need to move our arm in such a way that we provide it with the required velocity. Otherwise, it will decrease the distance on the way back up on each drop until it stops.
Try to make a good impression on the rest of your class, because you will be doing this course with them until the end.
