For students who aren't familiar with Ozobot Blockly, it is a really good idea to model the process of solving the first problem for the entire class. If possible, project how you solve the problem. Then, switch the window to show how you code. It is a good idea to leave your code on the big screen for students to refer back to.
For ease of pairing, it will be easier to pass out 1 Ozobot at a time. Turn it on and pair with computer before moving onto the next group to avoid students accidentally pairing the wrong Ozobot.
When students are coding on Blockly, make sure they are on level 4 or 5 so they can put in the exact angles. Additionally, since Blockly only codes in whole numbers have students round. Their triangles may not be exactly correct, but they should be within a centimeter of being complete if solved and coded correctly.
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
For each triangle, start by using the Pythagorean Theorem to solve for the length of the missing side.

Goal
Instruction
Open Ozobot Blockly and pair your Ozobot with your device. Code the Ozobot to trace your triangle, using the length of the missing side that you calculated. If your Ozobot ends up close to where he started you are correct. If he isn't in the right place, you should check your code AND your math to figure out where you went wrong.
