As students work together in teams they'll not only develop academic skills and understandings, they'll gain the experience of working together meaningfully as a team. Using Wonder Workshop's Dash and Dot robots, students will apply the coding practices they've learned through Code.Org into real world robot coding and all the problem-solving that comes with working in a real world space. Currently we don't have enough Dash and Dot robots for students to work in small enough groups where each will have to fulfill a vital role. Captain, designer, researcher, programmer, wrangler, tinkerer, and documentarian are roles of importance and not one my students have regularly had the chance to take on and learn from due to pandemic events. Too often, my students are passive learners and the Dash and Dot robots, along with the coding and problem-solving that accompany them, require engagement, learning, thinking, team work, and other SEL strategies they've been out of practice with for more than a year now. A Sample of Standards Met K.AP.A.1 – Model daily processes by creating and following sets of step-by-step instructions (algorithms) to complete tasks. (P4.4) 1.AP.PD.1 - Describe the iterative process of program development (including terminology, steps taken, and the logic of choices). (P7.2) 2.AP.PD.1 - Develop plans that describe a program’s sequence of events, goals, and expected outcomes (P5.1, 7.2) 3.AP.PD.2 - Take on varying roles (e.g., researcher, programmer, test developer, designer, recorder) with teacher guidance, when collaborating with peers during the design, implementation, and review stages of program development. (P2.2) 4.AP.A.1 - Test, compare, and refine multiple algorithms for the same task and determine which is the most appropriate. (P3.3, 6.1-3) 5.AP.M.2 - Modify, incorporate, and test portions of an existing program into their own work, to develop something new or add more advanced features. (P5.3)
