Finally received our competition mat so teams can complete Mission 1 in style! Ss are discussing coordinates and estimating distances between trash piles while also problem solving to create their code! #WLRC Wonder Workshop Elm Drive P.S. Peel District School Board

Ss created a robot character and story for Mission 2 in #WLRC. They used descriptive language to tell the story of their character as they avoided “logs” to get to the yummy food in the trap at the end of the junk yard. Elm Drive P.S. Peel District School Board Wonder Workshop

Today Ss decided they needed to practice observation/estimating skills a bit more before beginning our Fish Inquiry. Ss estimated the distance Dash should travel around their peers while using descriptive lang to explain his journey. Elm Drive P.S. Peel District School Board Wonder Workshop

Ss wrote a letter to persuade the principal to let us get fish for our class inquiry. Ss collected info about fish they were interested in studying & wrote about what their plan of action was. What type of food? Water temp? etc Which fish will thrive? Peel District School Board Elm Drive P.S.

Ss are using their knowledge of nets to help them build their Box City for Mission 3 of #WLRC While Ss experiment with different strategies to make a net out of a box, others are using @Flipgrid and PicCollage to document their groups process. Elm Drive P.S. Peel District School Board

Thank you to the grade 5 students in @MsSpadafora16 class for inviting us to their class Museum. All of your structures look great! Elm Drive P.S. Peel District School Board
