    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

    Teach and discuss the many different causes of water/ocean pollution and the effects on marine life (ex. plastic/litter, oil, fertilizer, animal waste, acid rain, etc.) May be helpful to make a list of all possible causes.

    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

    Students will create drawings or build representations/models of the various forms (in groups or altogether).

    Please upload any student resources, videos, etc. (Max. size: 512 MB videos, 10 MB all other files)

    Goal

    Instruction

    Students will glue the drawings or place the models around blue butcher paper (water) and draw a black track (leaving space right in front for specific codes) around past each source to form a large circle. Each student/group will determine different codes for the Ozobot to perform as it passes each specific cause of water pollution (ex. oil - "tornado" or "spin", plastic/litter - "snail" or "slow"). This is representative of a fish passing through different pollutants and modeling their reactions.

    Please upload any student resources, videos, etc. (Max. size: 512 MB videos, 10 MB all other files)

    Goal

    Instruction

    Run the Ozobot around the track to mimic a fish encountering pollution in the water.
