Third Graders and Kindergarteners Work with Robotics
Third graders have been busy assembling robots with Technology Integrator Judith Seidel. On April 8, 2016, the students shared their creations with kindergartners and showed them how to program the robots to perform certain functions.
In addition to integrated projects in homerooms and special classes, children in Grades Three and Four attend dedicated technology classes with the technology integrator for two one-hour sessions each eight-day cycle. The curriculum provides students with such basic skills as working with Google Drive accounts, organizing files, and basic coding. The time in the lab gives students the space to build creative animation, programming and engineering projects.
