INTERMEDIATE: Add Sensors

Required lessons: Encoders

Use the Finch encoders to draw a figure 8! To draw arcs, set one wheel to move forward while one wheel is stationary, using the Finch Wheels block. Make your arcs precise and repeatable by using the encoder reading and stopping the movement once you have moved a certain distance.
