2/23/2017

In preparation for our guest speaker, Mr. Alex Hatoum, Managing Director for the World-Wide Human Geography Data Working Group, students practiced filtering water. 

Student mixed a polluted water solution filled with dirt, twigs, grass and leaves to simulate dirty water.  

Using layers of materials:
  • coffee filters
  • napkins
  • baby wipes
  • sand
  • gravel
Students inverted a water bottle and put layers of materials to filter out the pollution.  Students had two rounds to change their filtering layers and write observations about the smell, transparency and color of the water.

We have begun our Computer Science part of our Iron Giraffe project. Students started interacting with the robots with games they created themselves.  At this stage, the robots are controlled by another robot.  We later will program them.

Our Learning Process
Mistake.
Learn.
Grow.
Co-teaching is when two or more people, traditionally teachers, share the opportunity to teach.

Ko-teaching [a play on my name] aims to share the teaching opportunity with the teacher and the students.
