Hi! We are Chris and Darryn, two students attending Vina Danks Middle School. We are in the GATE progam. We have done a LEGO project in Mr. St. Clair's room. We chose to do a wheelchair. It is controlled by a joystick we made out of Legos. It was fun to build although we had trouble finding some pieces. We had to program it to make it work. Once it was working it was cool because we got to use the joystick to control the movement of the wheelchair we made. We got to learn some more things about programming. In conclusion, we had fun building this wheelchair and also liked playing with it when we were finished building it.
Below is a picture and the progamming
