 Metro Elementary Reflection Drone Reflection      My partner and I started off with three students in first grade, and we started with learning about the drone. We had asked the students if they had ever played with or seen a drone before, to which all three of them excitedly said yes they've played with drones, and excited to do it again. We showed them a demonstration of the drone flying and doing a flip. Then, we explained what specific coding was used to make the drone do that. We had them make up their own specific code for them to see what the drone would do. They were very excited to make their own coding sequence.      However, at first the drone would not connect to the droneblocks app from the Chromebook provided by the school. So, we switched to plan b and used my personal phone to code the drone. We still used the Chromebook for the students to see and use. After they created their code on the laptop, I would add the same exact o...

 9/19/23 Practice of Flying Drones   The picture above is a screenshot of the coding my partner and I used to have the drone fly in a square and flip.  Steps on how to fly drone:  Download DroneBlocks app Turn on drone Connect wifi to drones wifi Connect app to drone Input correct coding launch  Lesson Plan for Metro Elementary  Lego WeDO 2.0 Lesson                This lesson is based off of Kindergarden students.  Teks: Technology. K.  (B) Creativity and innovation. Students use innovative design processes to develop solutions to problems. Students plan a solution, create the solution, test the solution, iterate, and debug the solution as needed and implement a completely new and innovative product. ISTE 2a : Nurture a confident, competent and positive identity around computing for every student. Have students build the lego snail as a group (group should be 2-5 students) Students see demonstration of ...

 Jacqueline Prado IDET4300 Drone Blocks Intro to Tello Drone Programming Coding: Coding for this drone will start with takeoff, yaw right or left, and land. the altitude will be around 4-5 feet. The commands should be in sequential logic, which is where each block is executed in a specific order.  A Box Mission: takeoff-repeat 4 [fly forward- yaw right] *yaw=turn *fly= actually moves Loop and Flip: takeoff- repeat 5 [flip forward-flip backward-flip left- flip right]- land Variables For The Win: takeoff- repeat 2 [fly forward 12 - yaw right 180]- repeat 2 [fly forward 24- yaw right 180]- repeat 2 [fly forward 36- yaw right 180]- repeat 2 [fly forward 48 - yaw right 180] repeat 2 [fly forward 60- yaw right 180]- land Adding Logic With If/Else Statements: takeoff- repeat 2[fly forward-fly right- fly forward-fly left]- yaw right- fly forward - land Land in Your Hand: Takeoff- fly up 24 in - hover for 10 sec - land Drone Blocks Simulator Box Mission:  Loop and Flip:  scre...

 WeDo2.0 Lab 9/5/23 Glowing Snail   This lab activity mixes Legos and coding. My partner and I had the opportunity to have the glowing snail lab activity. For this lab it is based for first or second grade. The purpose of this lab is for students to create the snail using legos, connecting the snail to the app, then learn coding to have the snail flash different colored lights in different orders using an app. This activity should take about fifteen minutes for the students to complete.  The link for this activity is here:  https://education.lego.com/en-us/lessons/wedo-2-mini-lessons/glowing-snail/  5.1.d Develop resilience and perseverance when approaching CS and CT learning experiences, build comfort with ambiguity and open-ended problems, and see failure as an opportunity to learn and innovate.
