Design and build a sleigh using a WeDo kit that will pull a specific measured weight.
In this lesson, students will collect/interpret data and then create a graph to present.
Students will create an obstacle course for the Dash robot to demonstrate the following movements and position words: straight, in front of, behind, zigzag, between, on top of, round and round , under, above, back and forth, below, beside, fast and slow.
After reading various versions of The Three Little Pigs, students will plan and design houses that could protect the little pigs from the Big Bad Wolf (a hair dryer).
Students will explore the basics of literacy through fun and interactive activities using Micro:bit technology.
Students develop their language and literacy skills, including reading, writing, and communication.
Students will collaborate in groups to foster teamwork and communication.
Students will listen to the book The Most Magnificent Thing by Ashley Spires and then collaboratively work together to make a doll that talks using the Scratch program and a Makey Makey. (These two tools were introduced and taught prior to this lesson.)
Students will be grouped into teams. Then each team will create a pathway for their Hexbug to travel. The Hexbug path should be 5 feet from beginning to end and must include two curves, a hill, one bridge and one tunnel. The Hexbug must travel from the beginning to the end without any assistance. Each team will have a timer and will have 20 minutes to design the quickest path they can for their Hexbug. After the first race teams will have 5 minutes to talk about changes they can make and 5 minutes to make the changes. There will be one final race to see if a different team is able to win.
Solving 2-step equations involving decimals and fractions. This online lesson includes instruction via a Prezi presentation (which has audio and visual components), practice in the form of an online crossword puzzle, and assessment in the form of an online quiz with a variety of question types. There is also an engaging extension activity for students to extend their learning by creating thier own equations and solving them.
The students will be able to move the Code and Go mice using the directional buttons.The students will code the Code and Go mice to move to specific sites on a gridded and ungridded map.
In this lesson, students use their knowledge of sound energy to create a soundproof box to protect a secret code word! Students measure and graph decibels to determine how well their boxes omit sounds!
In this lesson students create large story maps to retell and familiar text. Students record themselves and place QR codes along the story map. Students then code Sphero Robots, dressed as main characters, to make their way through each part of the story.
