Ribbit Your Code Isabella Soriano

 Ribbit Your Code Activity

Isabella Soriano & Kylee Ware

Activity: 

  1. Connect Lego Frog to the WeDo 2.0 lab app on a laptop. Have the app already downloaded.

  2. My partner and I will introduce the vocabulary of the modes to use for coding.


Forward                          Backwards                   Speed                           Time (seconds)

Pause/stop

  1. My partner and I will model the frog going forward one time through the coding on the app.







  1. My partner and I will model the frog going backward one time through the coding on the app.  




  1. The first task for the students is to make the frog go forward and stop (first code done student scaffolding by my partner and I)

  2. The second task is to make the frog go backward and stop (the second code done by student scaffolding by my partner and I)

  3. Now have the students try and make the code shown by my partner and I ( time 5 speed 5) 

 












  1. Now the students will make another code however this time the speed is 8 and the time 5.  



  1. Now the students will make another code with the speed on 9 and the time on 7.



If students complete the codes they will be able to create their own. 

Possible outcomes:

Students not understanding the codes. We will provide a "cheat sheet" of the modes of the codes definitions.

Standards:

5b: Empower students to select personally meaningful computational projects.

5c: Use a variety of instructional approaches to help students frame problems in ways that can be represented as computational steps or algorithms to be performed by a computer.

  Isabella Soriano Drone Blocks Simulation Blog -Which specific simulation tutorials were the most interesting to you? The code that allows the drone to flip 5 times was most interesting to me. Using the loop at 5 and having the drone go forward, backward, left, right, and then landing was the most interesting code my partner and I did. -How did you try to alter the lines of code for what effects? I believe altering the loop by changing the number for the drone to repeat that many times. Altering how far the drone goes by altering the inches number. -What can you imagine for an engaging 5-10 minute simulator experience that encourages experimentation with lines of code?  Having the students create a code to spin 3 times would be a 5-10 minute simulator experience.  Vocabulary terms: Blocks - a structure of codes grouped together. Codes - a system created. Hover - code created to hover in a place. Loop - repeat.  Yaw - rotation around a virtual axis.  Variables -...

  MakerSpace: TEKS: K.13 C - identify and record the changes from seed, seedling, plant, flower, and fruit in a simple plant life cycle. Objective: The students will identify the changes through the plant life cycle and create a plant cycle digital art. ISTE Standards: 1.d Develop resilience and perseverance when approaching CS and CT learning experiences, build comfort with ambiguity and open-ended problems, and see failure as an opportunity to learn and innovate. 3.a Model and learn with students how to formulate computational solutions to problems and how to give and receive actionable feedback. 3.c Plan collaboratively with other educators to create learning activities that cross disciplines to strengthen student understanding of CT and CS concepts, transfer application of knowledge in new contexts.  How ISTE Standards Met : This activity can't be done wrong and has the ability to erase so students are able to be comfortable exploring with Canva knowing they can always era...
