Teacher's Note: Reaching the first feeding spot. Pro Preview

We assume that students will program the tail to wobble for one rotation or many degrees as a result of which the program will get stuck. That is how students will really learn how to program such constructions. Watch out for your fingers while handling the gear wheels.

Students should start by programming the robot to go forward for several rotations, for example 4. Then, the robot should wait for several seconds in order to have time to see if there are any predators in the area. Then, the robot moves forward until it reaches the wall, or the feeding spot. After that the fish goes back until the rotations are fewer or equal to 0 so that it can return to its initial position.

Here is the full program for the robot: https://www.fllcasts.com/programs/0qorzy-program-for-the-ev3-fish-robot-piscis
