Have you ever seen kiwi? Where?
It is absolutely normal if you haven’t seen kiwi as they are native to New Zealand. Moreover, their species is endangered.
You can see that kiwi and the kiwifruit are very much alike. Kiwi are the only birds that do not have tails! They don’t have wings, either. The only thing these birds need are two legs and a beak.

This Tutorial is used in the following courses and lessons
Level D1. "Animals". Robotics with LEGO
This is the seventh level of the Robotics with LEGO curriculum for students in third or fourth grade.
In this level students focus on the rotational sensor that is part of every motor in the robotics set.
Robot constructions imitate animals and their behavior. Students create programs that check whether the robot's claws or pecks have successfully caught an object. That sensor in the motors allows the robots to go back in their lairs even after the use of unlimited movement.
