    MY SMART HELPER ROBOT

                                                                       Objective: Make a little helper robot that can
                                                                       move around and do small jobs using wheels,

                              Capstone Project                         levers, a battery, wires and a switch.

                     Session 1: Robot Helpers in the Real World

                     Activity: My Helpful Robot Friend

                     Task: Think of a robot that helps people — like cleaning, watering plants or carrying things.
                     Draw your robot on paper and show how it senses, thinks and acts.

                     You can label its parts — eyes (sensors), brain (controller) and arms (actuators).

                     Skills Practiced:
                        Thinking about how robots help us                Drawing and labelling parts
                        Using imagination

                     Outcome for Session 1: A colourful drawing showing how your robot helps people.

                     Session 2: Design and Build Using Simple Machines

                     Activity: Build Your Robot Model

                     Task: Now, make the same robot you drew. Use simple machines like wheels, levers and
                     pulleys to help it move.

                     You Will Need:
                     Cardboard  box, bottle caps  (for  wheels), pencils or sticks,  spoons  (for  arms), rubber
                     bands, tape and glue.
                     Steps:

                       STEP - 1   Take a small box for the robot’s body.

                      STEP - 2   Fix wheels at the bottom using sticks.

                      STEP - 3   Use spoons for arms.

                      STEP - 4   Join parts with rubber bands or tape.

                      STEP - 5   Decorate it with colours or stickers.

                      STEP - 6   Test how it moves or lifts light things.

                                                                                             Capstone Project
