Description: In this interactive lesson, students will explore the shape of a circle through geometry and hands-on robotics with the Root iRobot. Students won’t just learn about circles—they’ll create one by programming Root to draw a circle using block-based code. What Students Will Learn: What a circle is and what makes it special Real-world examples of circle-shaped objects The basic parts of a circle: arc, radius, and diameter That circles are round, have no corners, and go all the way around How to use the Root Robot to draw a circle That programming Root uses step-by-step directions, just like geometry Students Will: Watch and learn what makes a circle a circle Practice identifying circle parts through multiple choice and yes/no questions See how geometry connects to robotics Build a simple program for Root to follow Designed For: Learners exploring geometry and robotics Elementary STEM and special education classrooms Root iRobot users looking for hands-on shape integration Why You’ll Love It: Makes geometry interactive and fun Combines math, technology, and problem-solving Builds early coding confidence with Root Easy-to-follow visuals and accessible vocabulary
