Unit Study:
We worked on Mission 2 with our Recon Robots! It was challenging and the kids LOVED it! They showed excellent problem solving trying to do the programming to get their robots to complete the Mission.
Next, they worked on two new lessons in Code.org. We learned about loops and how they're used in coding.
Algebraic Thinking:
We continued our "Triplets" game to warm-up our algebra skills for starting Hands On Equations next time. The kids were excited to solve real algebra problems!
Stations:
We continued our work on Weighty Words with Scintillate and Truculent. The kids chose super images to visualize their words this week!
We used our convergent and divergent thinking skills to solve "Robot Writing". It was cool to see the kids' thinking on this!
Novel Study:
We read a bit more of House of Robots. We found out that Sammy's mom wasn't missing, she was just busy in her Robot Lab. Hmm...but what's going on with the Black SUV? Maybe we'll find out soon!
