This week was research week and the children started the week by discussing what they wanted to learn about. They decided on the topic of robots.
The children asked questions that helped in the research of the topic. These include, ‘What are robots?’, ‘How can they help us?’ and ‘Why do we need robots?’ After reading books about robots and learning about them on the interactive whiteboard, the children learnt many interesting facts about robots and some of these include:
1. Robots are machines and they can be programmed by computers.
2. Robots can be used to explore places that are not easily accessible to humans, eg. Space and the deep oceans.
3. Robots can help to do dangerous jobs such as cleaning up oil spills in the ocean and exploring volcanos.
4. Some robots look like humans and some do not.
5. Robots that help us today include drones and vacuum robots.
For mathematics, the children did addition of robots. It was a fun and easy way to introduce the concept of addition!
