Montclair Elementary School hasn't added a story.
The Kindergarten and Intervention teams at Montclair Elementary teams are committed to the purposeful use of technology to meet content standards. With 51 students in our two kindergarten classes and 26 served Intervention students in K-2nd grades, we are currently exploring coding as a viable means to help solidify core content in Reading and Math.
Coding in Early Elementary Grades
Cubetto is a robot that introduces young students to coding, problem solving, and sequencing. Students will work to code Cubetto in both independent and collaborative peer partnerships using a coding mat, coding board and specialized pieces that control directionality of the robot. To meet our grade level standards, we plan to utilize teacher-created coding mats in center rotations that allow students to creatively learn sight words, engage in story retell and practice math subitizing skills.
Cubetto robots work to creatively engage student learning!
In our regular use of the Cubetto robot loaned to us by the district tech department, student learning and engagement with sight words, story retell and math subitizing skills have improved. Customized mats have been used to focus upon individual student needs, allowing for ease in differentiation. We have observed that students are very engaged in partnerships, problem-solving, and critical thinking as well as learning skills necessary to reach grade-level proficiency standards in math and literacy. We have further observed that the learning curve is quick, allowing for ease of independent use in centers. Future uses for the Cubetto will include Science and Social Studies content.
With funds raised for this project we will purchase four Cubetto robot sets that will be shared among our Kindergarten and Intervention teams. An itemized cost list is as follows:
4 Cubettos @ $225 each = $900
Cubetto Big City Adventure Pack @ $30
Cubetto Blue Ocean Adventure Pack @ $30
Cubetto Deep Space Adventure Pack @ $30
Cubetto Directional Blocks Pack @ $30
Total cost= $1,020
