• Do Dangerous Jobs: Robots can go to places that are too dangerous

for humans, like exploring space or deep underwater.

• Make Fewer Mistakes: Robots are very precise, so they make fewer
mistakes when building things.

Disadvantages

The disadvantages of a robot are:

• Expensive to Make: Robots can cost a lot of money to build and maintain.

• Need Repairs: Robots can break down and need fixing, which can be

costly and time-consuming.

• Cannot Think for Themselves: Robots can only do what they

are programmed to do, so they cannot solve new problems on
their own.

• Take Away Jobs: Sometimes, robots replace people in certain jobs,

which can make it harder for some to find work.

• Need Power: Robots need electricity or batteries to work, and they
stop working if they run out of power.

Meet the Robot Block-Based Construction Kit

The Robot Block-Based Construction Kit is an engaging and hands-on
tool that helps students explore building robots and machines. It comes

with different blocks that can be easily put together to create robots or
projects. While putting together the blocks, students also understands

how different parts of a robot work together.

With this kit, students will explore:

• Different types of movement – like how wheels spin or how robot arms
move.

• Gears – and how they help machines work smoothly.

• Power screw – and how it helps lift or move heavy things.
