students to recognize loops and patterns, and to be able to create a concise algorithm. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617ec30c157f1516aa5074eb/18c02a3e-f4dc-4839-b5d4-b4d12cd60ff9/Fruit+loop+example.jpg Fruit Loops Loop Lesson - In this lesson, students will learn to understand the importance of pattern recognition, and to decompose a larger problem by breaking it into smaller pieces. At the beginning of each class the students sing the Alligator Song. This song reminds them to use the problem-solving strategy “step by step” and “think of what we need to do.” This enforces the concept that when they see a complex pattern, it can be broken down into simpler steps. Next, the students are divided into centers. These centers include; the Fruit Loop Center, Loops Dance Center, the Cubetto Center, and Code.org Course A. At the Fruit Loop center, students create a pattern and count the number of times their pattern repeats. Then, this pattern is used to write a concise algorithm using the repeat block. A repeat block is a control block that tells the computer to loop the code the designated number of times before continuing with the rest of the algorithm. This teaches the student what the concept of ‘loop’ is in programming. At the dance center, the students create their own loops by kinesthetically reenacting a loop pattern they designed using the repeat block and dance commands. By performing this “Loop Dance”, they learn how to break down a loop program into its repeated pattern. At the Cubetto center, students learn how to write a program that does not contain loops, using a robot. The robot’s tasks are directly affected by the students programming. This is a tangible way for them to see how the program will affect the outcome of the robot’s movements and the students can debug the program if necessary. Code.org Course A is a computer program which allows the students to apply everything they have learned about loops. Through the use of numerous puzzles, the students will have to use concise algorithms to complete tasks. Each center gives the students an opportunity to learn, practice, and review loops from different perspectives. This helps them understand all aspects of loops. https://whisperingedtech.com/dolle-10 daily 0.75 2022-01-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617ec30c157f1516aa5074eb/6e00accd-0923-4900-a050-4a2f5c4c24c3/Doll+E+Display.png Doll-E 1.0 - Doll-E 1.0 The students learned how to be a good friend and programmed the computers to make talking dolls. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617ec30c157f1516aa5074eb/40b777e5-cfc4-4c27-8be9-26fa58101563/Doll+collection.png Doll-E 1.0 First the students learned what it means to be a friend. The students went on Scratch and programmed their reasons for being a good friend. Next students worked together to create paper dolls. Each doll had one arm that had a conductor on it. When they were finished, they attached the Makey Makey to the dolls and to the computer. When the two dolls hands touched, the computer talked about how to be a good friend. https://whisperingedtech.com/mem-fox-author-study-powerpoint daily 0.75 2022-01-19 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617ec30c157f1516aa5074eb/08c6f1fa-9dd4-4d90-8e30-c5b81d012295/Mem+Fox+Pic.jpg Mem Fox Author Study PowerPoint - Mem Fox Author Study Powerpoint Each Slide they read a new Mem Fox book and learned a new tool on PowerPoint. https://whisperingedtech.com/penguins daily 0.75 2022-03-13 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617ec30c157f1516aa5074eb/6b76b652-0cda-45cf-9235-bdf18632e1d6/Penguins+Book.png Penguins - Penguins Students created informational books on Penguins using PowerPoint.

I had the students write everything that they know about the "Food Chain" in their image that they chose. When they were done I did a "Speed Dating" lesson. The students made two straight lines. They would talk to the person in front of them about what was on their food. When they were done talking the other person would share what they wrote. When the music came on they would rotate. We rotated about 5 times. After they went to their seats and wrote down any new words or concepts that they had heard from their peers. This activity helped me understand what the students already knew about the Food Chain before beginning the project. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617ec30c157f1516aa5074eb/039d2273-0a88-406c-83d9-0c89c7a54ce2/microbit+3.png 5th Grade Food Chain Project The students were given a Micro:Bit to program. We spent one class learning the basics of how a Micro:Bit works. The second class they programmed the Micro:Bit to say the name of their food, a picture of it, and their name. The students felt comfortable using the Micro:Bit because of their knowledge of Scratch. The hardest part was dragging the file from the download file to the Micro:Bit. https://whisperingedtech.com/weather-project daily 0.75 2022-03-07 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/617ec30c157f1516aa5074eb/deb4826a-30ea-4f33-88b9-291d6aaddac0/Weather.png Weather Project - 5th Grade Weather Project This lesson was inspired by an amazing opportunity called Transatlantic Outreach Program.

At the beginning of each class the students sing the Alligator Song. This song reminds them to use the problem-solving strategy “step by step” and “think of what we need to do.” This enforces the concept that when they see a complex pattern, it can be broken down into simpler steps. Next, the students are divided into centers. These centers include; the Fruit Loop Center, Loops Dance Center, the Cubetto Center, and Code.org Course A. At the Fruit Loop center, students create a pattern and count the number of times their pattern repeats. Then, this pattern is used to write a concise algorithm using the repeat block. A repeat block is a control block that tells the computer to loop the code the designated number of times before continuing with the rest of the algorithm. This teaches the student what the concept of ‘loop’ is in programming. At the dance center, the students create their own loops by kinesthetically reenacting a loop pattern they designed using the repeat block and dance commands. By performing this “Loop Dance”, they learn how to break down a loop program into its repeated pattern. At the Cubetto center, students learn how to write a program that does not contain loops, using a robot. The robot’s tasks are directly affected by the students programming. This is a tangible way for them to see how the program will affect the outcome of the robot’s movements and the students can debug the program if necessary. Code.org Course A is a computer program which allows the students to apply everything they have learned about loops. Through the use of numerous puzzles, the students will have to use concise algorithms to complete tasks. Each center gives the students an opportunity to learn, practice, and review loops from different perspectives.
