To start off this project, I read "Hello Robots" to the class. We paid close attention to the shapes and details in the illustrations. The kids loved looking at the page where the robots got wet. :) After discussing the story and illustrations, first graders designed their own robots with basic geometric shapes, lines, and patterns. We took a short robot dance break (what would the fun of this project be if we couldn't listen to some '80s electronic music?) to figure out the robot poses. Finally, we practiced neat coloring with crayons and markers and our pictures crayon rubbing backgrounds.
