Our class is working on Lego Robotic. We are learning how to program using critical thinking, careful observation, and measurement to successfully complete tac.
The big ideas in this module are system and variable. Any collection of objects that is working together we identify as a system. The systems your child is using in this module are pendulums, boats, windup airplanes, and little catapult systems called flippers. In each system the interacting parts influence how the whole system behaves or performs. If the parts of the system can change, those parts are called variables. An understanding of the idea of a variable and the ability to identify and control variables are the cornerstone of scientific experimentation. |
