flap its frill, illuminate its bi-color LED eyes, and scurry away to safety. In the “follow-me”
mode, the robot will assess danger by bluffing the attacker. When the robot does not
sense danger it might approach you like a pet lizard. You will also team up with your
classmates to build a 6-foot long Crocosaur! Using the wireless remote, watch as this 5-
motor, battery operated robot crawls across the room. If you’re a young lizard enthusiast

Instructor: Allen Terrell
Content: Calligraphy has always been the aesthetic representation of the thoughts and beauty of
the words we choose. With all it’s flaws, hand crafted calligraphy will always present itself

once you have learned one style, all other styles become simple to master. We will be
using traditional metal nibs and ink. Don’t forget your reading glasses!
