Take a Look at Our
Robot Project
In first grade, we are completing a math unit on geometry, pattern blocks and shapes. In social studies, we are also learning about community helpers. As a culminating enrichment activity for this unit, first graders designed and created a pattern block robot. Students learned that architects also design a blueprint before a house is built, and thus students transferred this learning to the design and creation of their own robot. The students also graphed the number of pattern blocks used and wrote an imaginative story about their robot.
