Unit Study:
We continued our work with Loops on Code.org. The kids really understand how and why loops are used in programming! Later, they programmed their Robots to do a "Night Surveillance" mission. Some groups even went beyond by adding a recorded voice warning.
Stations:
We stretched our convergent thinking with a logic puzzle and synonym analogies. The kids did well with both! We also tied our unit into our divergent thinking activity with a Robot Transformation. Check out the creative results in the hall outside our classroom!
Novel Study:
We read a bit more of House of Robots and found out the Sammy's mom is MISSING! Oh no! The kids had a blast using their creativity and critical thinking skills to make "Missing Mom" posters to help us find her!
Remember that Target will be on Thursday next week.
HW: Finish Missing Mom Poster
Until next time,
