How will this activity allow the children to tinker?
Will my children desire to work alone or collaborate with a partner?
How can I encourage their logic and evaluation skills?
What items will be needed to create these items?

# data[].attributes.body
Students are in an all-about earth and space unit, where they are learning about different planets, rocket ships, and more. For this week we are following the children's interest in moving into wind and motions. For this same reason, we are learning about different real-world problems that are caused by wind, as well as how rocket ships are able to handle the wind and gravity and motion.

What will need to be adjusted? What strategies will I use for this lesson to be successful? Does the lesson engage the children enough to desire to learn more?

# data[].attributes.body
Do I have enough materials to engage my students? How can I encourage my students not to lose confidence if their rocket ship or kite is not successful the first time? Should I have older kids come in to help with these projects?

# data[].attributes.body
The following activity is very engaging and catching for the children's interest the children will need to use many of their CT Skills, these skills will be needed for the students to be successful, since of my age group I will be moving around a lot during the activity to encourage the children to problem solve as well for them not to get discouraged in their abilities.

# data[].attributes.body
What engaging questions will I ask my students to develop their speech? How will I gather these questions? How do these questions or activities help reach the standard? How will I make sure that the students that need extra help will get it?

# data[].attributes.body
These activities will allow the children to explore different ways to follow their interests. As well as learning through exploration, the children will have multiple times in where they will be able to use their tinkering skills. The children will also explore other CT skills when using their logic and evaluation skills.

# data[].attributes.body
The students will have this activity after the story On the LaunchPad; the children will also have different images on the table of different types of rockets. On the table as well, the children will have all the different types of materials that they will need to build their rocket ship. We will have a wind tunnel in the classroom where the children will test out their rocket ship when they are done creating their model. If their model is unsuccessful, they will need to use their CT skill of debugging the errors and build their preserving skills.

On the table, the children will be able to choose from different materials such as;

Legos ( small and large)
wooden pieces ( small and large)
Nails
nuts and bots
screwdrivers
hammers
paper
cardstock
paper plates
hot glue guns
wheels ( small or large)
Pipe cleaners
Toilet Paper rolls and paper towel rolls.

The children will then need to make their own blueprint of what they want their rocketship to look like using their Evaluation skills and logic skills. To move to the process of building their own rocket ship.

After all the rocketships are ready it is time to test them in the Wind Tunnel, to see which will fly and which will need to go back to the tinker table.

After reading the story " Windy Day."

The children will connect the knowledge they learned through the book and now explore with their sense in the real world, and for this activity, we will be going outside.

Activity #2 Let's Make A Kite and Fly It!

What You Will Need

Paper bags – 1 per child

Hole punch

Glues

Tape

Lightweight string or yarn  – two 3-foot lengths per child

Watercolor paint/crayons/markers (to decorate the kites)

Straws

forks/spoons

hot glue

cardstock

Paper

What to do

1. Discuss the things we see flying in the sky ( For those students who will need extra help or are ELL students, we will partner up with a peer who will be able to help them if they need help and (teacher) is unable to assist. We'll also have the table cards for the students where they can connect print to an image.

2. Encourage the children to think about the sky that allows things to fly (air and wind). ( This part is for the standard and for the children to build their confidence in those feedback loops where we can have those opened conversations.)

3. Let's start building.

4. Allow the student to be able to choose their materials from the table.

5. Help the children with a hot glue gun, (BUT DO NOT DO IT FOR THEM)

6. Encourage the children to use their CT to think about what kite shape will be best for flying.

7. When children are done, take the children outside to try flying their kites.

8. Upon returning to the classroom, discuss trying to fly the kites, ask the children what went well and what was not so successful.

What materials will I need to collect? What materials will engage my student's interest? How can I move my student from Multidisciplinary to interdisciplinary in these next weeks, for the final project to be successful and be transdisciplinary?

# data[].attributes.body
The children's interest is now in wind and motion, these are topics that can be very complete for such a young age group, due to the fact that a simple definition will not get the job done, as the children making their own connection to these topics. For this same reason, I will be bringing in different books that talk about the topic, with images to be able to show my ELL students which words represent what.

# data[].attributes.body
What will I need for this lesson? What obstacles might I have? What prior knowlegde do my students have?

# data[].attributes.body
Am I prepared for my students? Do I have all the knowledge that is required for this lesson? What can go wrong in the lesson? How can I prevent these moments from happening? Are all my materials gathered? Is my plan B ready? What will happen if the materials are not all enough for all my students? How can I avoid any DB from arising?
