We plan on using technology throughout our time with the students! The ultimate goal for the technology we will use with the students is to enhance their comprehension and overall engagement with the content and lessons they are learning and participating in.
We have been given the chance to use some fun robots, technological applications, and devices with all of our first-grade students!
Listed below are some pictures and descriptions of these awesome robots we plan on using!
Blue-Bots are programmable floor robots that are ideally made for teaching control, directional language, and programming to children.
We plan on using the Blue-Bots in a variety of different subject areas and some fun Tic-Tac-Toe Games!
Ozobots are desk-friendly coding robots that come with infinite ways to create, learn, and share.
We plan on using the Ozobots with a variety of different subject areas!
Dash bots are robots that react to the voices and sounds of the students. These robots can dance and sing which makes for a fun and interactive learning experience for all students.
The Dash bot will help the students to learn, laugh, and grow with their technology skills!
All of these applications will help the students to become more engaged with their content as well as make connections to multiple different subject areas. The inclusion of these applications will also help the students to improve upon their problem solving, critical thinking, and communication skills. We will always ensure there is a purpose to using the different technologies. Our primary goal is to ensure that the students leave the classroom with a newfound love for technology and how to use it inside and outside the classroom!
