    2. Preparation

    This helps the teacher prepare for the lesson before the class session

    A. Student Materials

    B. Background Knowledge (Optional)

    C. Lesson Tips (Optional)

    Add tips for the educator that don't fit into Direct Instruction or Student Practice. You can always return to this page to add more.

    • Lesson will be effective for all levels of learners in the classroom. From those with basic knowledge of the water cycle, to those with understanding of energy and molecular movement. From those who use color codes and paths with their Ozobots, to those who will challenge themselves with OzoBlockly.
    • Would recommend groups of 2-3.
    • Some groups may wish to use multiple Ozobots

    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

    Explain to students that this is their culminating project demonstrating knowledge of the water cycle and phase changes. Students will pre-plan, rough draft a poster, may have additional drafts before creating their final project, and include a written description of what the Ozobot motions and colors represent.

    Instruction

    -Remind students of guidelines for using the Ozobots, computers, pens, poster papers, cleaning up supplies, etc. -Encourage students to use their unit notes. Using notes will reinforse their learning, and encourage them to add more and more information to their final project. (I've even allowed groups to research online if they want to dig deeper.) -No need for additional instruction. Let the kids work and walk around the room problem solving and asking students questions to help them clarify their thinking.

    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

    Pass out a copy of the daily check-points, talk through process with students and answer questions they may have: 1) Brainstorm ideas on how to present water cycle 2) Rough draft started by end of day 1 3) Rough draft finished, and begin programming Ozobot to show pathway of water by end of day 2. Start write-up which will explain what the Ozobot is showing by it's actions. 4) Continue programing Ozobot to show molecular motion (speed), and phase changes (lights) by end of day 3. Continue with write-up. 5) Day 4-5: Finalize poster and coding. 6) Day 6: Present to teacher, or class.

    5. Supplements

    A. Lesson Closure (Optional)
    Give tips for how to wrap up the lesson and assess student learning. (Want to add an attachment? Use Part C, below.)

    Create RUBRIC that aligns with your learning targets for students to use as they walk around and see other groups, or as other groups present to the class.

    B. Academic Standards (At least one standard required)
    Choose a category from the dropdown on the left. In the blank on the right, begin typing the number of the standard.

      C. Add Other Attachments (Optional)
      Please upload any student handouts, videos, sample solutions, etc. (Max. size: 1 GB videos, 10 MB all other files)
