This lesson is based on a senior infants maths/literacy lesson.
The children will have the opportunity to engage in STEM activities and work hand on with technology to achieve their goal. This would be a great use of digital technology in the classroom.
The class will work in groups and use Sphero-Indi to map out the sequence of Rosie’s Walk. They will problem solve and collaborate, learning about perpositions as they go. Talk and discussion will be used to explore different ways the map could have been plotted and which structures could have been used.
The children can extend this lesson further by mapping out a route in the school, observing areas they may need to go through, over, under etc.
