How was the Matatalab robot(s) used?
To sump up : in 3 weeks (i received it late and my school has to close due to covid) I had the time to introduce 3 lessons to 3 classes: «Who is tale bot» «Can a bot draw» «A journey to the zoo». It was small group of 8 to 10 so I repeated it 3 times . Each kid had the possibility to manipulate and they worked by team of 2 for each coding : one speculate and found the order of the arrow and the other press the arrows. I introduced it also to a colleague and to her class and she took the bot at home in order to practice it for January . Her daughter ( 6 grade) discovers the bot all by herself and was amazed by all the possibilities.
What skills did it develop?
Work together, Problem Solving, Language Observation, Counting skills.
What worked best and what was challenging?
The best was:
The zoo and cycle of frog was the top best for them . 8 or 10 students is the maximum if we want all them to watch the map in the right way up.
The challenging part was:
It was challenging for the rest of the class to wait for their turn
How did students respond?
They were totally part of it, a lot of sparkle in their eyes, concentrated and focused on the problem solving : use of the arrow to where the bot told them.
