Teacher Notes (not visible to students)

This is a 2 part activity, but meant to do in one sitting. If that isn't possible, have students use a device to save their selfie to upload to Seesaw later. Part 1️⃣ ⭐Summary: After building or using a pre-built VexGo Code Base, students will use VexGo coding to code a path for the Code Base from start to finish. You can build fields, use chart or butcher paper to make a map, or simply map with tape on the floor. Ideally, students would have an identical copy of the map to record measurements, speed, etc. Part 2️⃣ ⭐Summary: After completing the coding portion, have students open seesaw and navigate to the reflection. Students will do several things: 1. Take a selfie (or upload a picture previously taken) with Code Base. 2. Think about how they solved a problem in their code and share. 3. Think about how they felt about the coding experience. 4. Use the emojis to share how they felt. πŸ”‘ Key Vocabulary: Coding block commands πŸ”— Helpful Site to learn about and review the coding commands: https://codego.vex.com/ ⭐This is a supplemental activity that can be used in conjunction with your district curriculum. πŸ›‘ Always preview videos to be sure they fit your audience/needs.
