    • Learn all you can how to teach young children about social (physical) distancing without frightening them. For younger students, it is better to call it "physical distancing." They need to remain "socially" active with their family members through phone calls and video chats. Teachers: Read the great article from Kindercare "Helping Kids Understanding Social Distancing." https://www.kindercare.com/lp/explaining-social-distancing-kids
    • Masks can be made for the bots to expand on additional scenarios with probable outcomes. This can evolve into lessons on social/physical etiquette and probability!

    3. Direct Instruction (Teacher-Facing Instructions)

    These are the steps the educator will read. Include any front loading, modeling or explicit instruction before students work independently or in groups.

    Instruction

    This lesson will help us understand what "physical distancing" is and how it works. We want to stay healthy and keep others around us healthy, too. Sometimes, it’s hard for people to tell if you have germs that make others sick. So that’s one reason why we’re all “physical distancing.” Today, we are going to learn more about "physical distancing" and our Ozobots are going to help us. We are going to use the Ozobot color coded sheet (provided). Using three Ozobots, we will set them on each of the three pathes. The red or sick Ozobot must stay in the house until he is better. The other two Ozobots travel along their paths. The Ozobot on the short path will reach a code that makes it "jump" into the house of the sick Ozobot. Because they are physically too close, the sick Ozobot may spread germs to the healthy Ozobot and become sick, too.

    Instruction

    Let's use the paper and markers to make masks for our Ozobots to help keep them safe. We will tape them onto the Ozobots.

    4. Student Practice (Student-Facing Instructions)

    These are step-by-step instructions delivered directly to the students as they work independently or in groups

    Student Instructions

    Instruction

    It might take several times for the Ozobot following the 'jumping' path to actually jump into the house. But don't worry. We will keep trying. This lesson will help us understand why we practice physical distancing to keep safe.
