The focus in World 3 is learning how to draw with your robot. Learners are introduced to the robot’s marker holder with the Marker Block. To draw with precision, learners will edit the Move and Turn Blocks with specific degrees and distances to draw letters and shapes with the robot. Explore parameters and practice debugging through the Simulator in the iRobot™ Coding App.
