6th-grade Science Monday to Friday - This week teams will finish exploring the features of the EV3 robot sensors. The assignment is called Port View and once teams are done with the Port View assignment they will begin the How Sensors Work assignment. Teams will design and carry out an experiment on one of the EV3 robot sensors to learn more about the sensor they choose. Then they will write a conclusion sharing what they learned from their experiment.  HW - The only homework so far is for students who have NOT completed their Faraday Golfing Machine blog post and/or their Robots blog post. Those who finished and got those two posts approved have no homework! 😀 This week period 3 will set the fish traps one day, then return the next day to ID and count any fish we catch in the traps. We always return the fish to the creek.
