In this project you will build a simple circuit by connecting a motor and a battery pack. Attaching a cork to the motor’s shaft makes it vibrate. This is the same concept that makes cell phones and video game controllers vibrate. You will attach your circuit to the body of a robot made from recycled materials. Your challenge is to build a robot that can move straight instead of just moving randomly or spinning in circles. To see written instructions for this lesson plan, visit us online at www.s
