    This lesson is a long unit because they did a lot of research on the national park before they built the park. It was in collaboration with the classroom teacher and the technology teacher. Prior to this lesson they had learned about three key locations at the national park/state park they had chosen.

    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

    I wrote the same instructions for the direct and practice. As a teacher I talked about the different reasons why people may interact with

    Drafting

    Students worked in peers or groups of three on this project.

    They had to do a rough draft on paper that mapped out what they were going to be building.

    We talked about what it means to be an architect. As the students are drafting their projects go around and see how they are interacting with their groups. Are all the students getting a chance to speak in their group.

    They needed to:

    • show where each location was going to be placed
    • explain the path that the Ozobot was going to take
    • write down what materials they wanted to use to build each piece (flexibility was given a lot with this)
    • test out a sample Ozobot path with the coding that they want to use

    These were all the materials that were supplied for them to do this project.

    Materials

    • Cardboard Boxes
    • Clay
    • Playdough
    • Legos
    • Glue
    • Glue Gun
    • Construction Paper
    • Pillow Stuffing
    • Pipe Cleaners
    • Pom Poms
    • Popsicle sticks
    • Wood Glue
    • Poster Board
    • Markers
    • Ozobots
    • Receipt Tape for Ozobot

    Building

    When the students were ready they had to come up to the materials store with a plan.

    They needed to express what they were building and ask for the exact materials that they would need.

    They needed to be very specific with what they were asking for. For example, they would have to say I want 15 Popsicles. They were always allowed to ask for more if needed.

    It tooks several days for them to build all of the pieces. They were not given the white poster board at first. They needed to build free standing pieces first.

    When they were ready for the boards they were passed out. All of the building had to be done before they were able to do the Ozobot Path.

    Ozobot Coding

    When the entire project was built they were able to check out the markers and draw out their Ozobot course. The students were required to use at least three codes and they had to interact with each of the different spots on their map. When they were done they were able to try it out with the Ozobot. Tip Have the students practice the coding that they want on the board on another piece of paper or use calculator paper throughout the project to help them with the white paper.

    4. Student Practice (Student-Facing Instructions)

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

    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.)

    The end of the project we had a National Park showcase. The parents were able to come in and see all the projects. We assessed the project by looking at the programming of the Ozobot. Did the students do 3 codes and did they connect with the location? Also, they were assessed on if they had built three places that people would visit at the state or national park. In their classroom they had done a report where the classroom teacher did grade.
