Laker Innovators

This year, Glen Lake Elementary has four amazing robotics teams that have been working their tails off to build, drive and begin to program their VEX IQ robots. The teams are comprised of 3rd and 4th graders with parent volunteer coaches. They practice at least once per week and are learning much more than robotics. Teamwork, compromise, listening, collaboration and good sportsmanship skills are essential for a successful robotics team. This January and February, our 3rd grade teams competed against other local teams in weekly completions through the VEX IQ Challenge. We had 15 third graders compete and they rocked it with one our of Glen Lake teams taking 2nd Place overall! The second round of competition, which will include our 4th graders will be starting next week. Way to go Little Lakers, we are so proud of you! 3rd Grade Robotics

Welcome the Glen Lake Innovator's blog! We will use this space to share all the great things that are happening in our classrooms. Our teachers are using technology to engage, inspire and deepen understandings every day and we will be sharing it here.
