None.
Outline
The team worked together to program the robot to run multiple missions. The kids combined the programs that they had written previously to solve and run individual missions. In order to do this, they had to discuss the right order to run the missions in. They were working on number 3 when we ran out of time.
The team also discussed the project. Beth reported that her research into electronic recycling shows that there really aren't any components that aren't already recycled. Recycling of clothing has come up several times before. Ms. Norwood and Beth went to two area thrift stores and talked to the staff about what they do with unusable clothing donations. For example, what happens to socks that don't have a mates (mismatched or stray socks). It turns out that they are thrown away. The team did some brainstorming on ideas to reuse mismatched socks. There are lots of craft ideas and cleaning uses on Pinterest. But, what else? The kids came up with a super idea which I will avoid printing on this blog for now.
More brainstorming was done, and some of the kids signed up to work on the project before we meet again on Thursday.
- Camden - Create sock collection bin for school office area
- Johnny and Gavin - Create flyer for Tuesday folders
- Zoe, Joshua, Beth - Create posters for school hallways/classrooms
Ms. Norwood will send an e-mail with additional explanation.
The kids will continue working on the robot run program.
