We are a group of 12 students. Our robots are Mike and Tyson. They are best friends...They were built in a little school in the south of Italy, A. Moro primary school.

Our Story
One day a group of young Italian 8 years old children , while was playing in the park of their city, found a big box. They opened it and found a lot of bricks of different shapes : rectangles, circles, square, trapezes. There were sensors and batteries too. The children carried the box and they showed the content to their technology teacher. There was a book with strange instructions in the box. The teacher and the children read the book. They were instructions for building robots. So they begun to put bricks together. They had a lot of fun and at the end they built two little robots. They named them Mike and Tyson.




Math in core of our robot
In order for Mike to properly send messages in code,he would need to learn the code he wants to use. He would need a good brain and good thinking in order to communicate efficiently. He would need to know about how languages are used,and how he can make correct sentences. In order for Tyson to be able to walk,turn around and explore,he would need good physical parts built into him. He would need good wheels or legs in order to walk or turn around. He would need to know how to walk properly,jump properly and so on.
