    This lesson can be independently as students research on their own. To modify the lesson, have students map out the explorers journey and code it using the Ozobot.

    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

    Begin by providing students with information about European Explorers. These explorers helped to journey to America to colonize the United States. Provide details on why thee Europeans wanted to leave their country.

    Instruction

    Allow students to chose their own European Explorer. Students will then research their explorers to provide answers to the following questions:

    a. What is the name of your explorer?

    b. Where did your explorer originate?

    c. What was the motive of their exploration and colonization?

    d. What problems did the explorer face?

    e. What route did the explorer take?

    f. Why did the explorer settle where they did? Describe the terrain.

    Instruction

    After answering and writing out the previous questions, students will code the route their explorer took to the Americas using their Ozobots. Students may turn their Ozobot into a ship or the explorer as they set out on their journey.

    Instruction

    Students will map out the terrain of region where the explorer chose to colonize, using the Ozobot to simulate the terrain.

    Instruction

    Students will present their findings and their journey to the class, or will present in small groups.

    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 work independently to research their explorer following the questions provided by the teacher. Should students get stuck, they may ask each other for help.
    Please upload any student resources, videos, etc. (Max. size: 512 MB videos, 10 MB all other files)

    Goal

    Instruction

    Students will then work in groups to help each other code their Ozobot to simulate the journey their explorer took, before simulating the terrain of where they colonized.
