ABCya is a great interactive site suited from preps to grade 6. There are loads of games from Days of the Week to Tangram puzzles. In amongst the games, there are interactive activities that allow the user to create cars, gingerbread houses and even robots. The Make a Robot interactive game is great from preps to grade 6 students, depending on the grade level can determine the level of extension you can give your grade.

1. ABCya – Make a Robot
Nicole Barnes

2. For the grade ones and twos, they could complete a Google
search for the site and also learn how to save their robot into the
schools network, filling out the appropriate fields.

3. For the grade 3 – 6, I thought saving was too
easy. They used the Snipping Tool to save their
robot into their file.
The Snipping Tool can be found in the Start
Menu. The sniping tool allows you to ‘cut’ out
the image you want using your cursor, and
either PASTE it into a document or SAVE it
somewhere.

5. The Picture Border tool in the FORMAT
menu can really change how an image
looks.

6. Why should we buy your robot?
