Zoom in on Industrial Robots

Zoom in on Robots

by Sara Latta

They build cars and computers and carry heavy boxes throughout warehouses. They even make pizzas. They are quick and accurate, and they can work 24/7 without tiring. They are industrial robots. Engaging text, fascinating facts, and full-color images tell the story of how factories and warehouses use robots. A "Words to Know" feature helps young readers master new vocabulary. This book includes a fun group activity in which students role-play as robots in a cookie factory, supporting the NGSS K-2 Engineering Design Standards.
