1. Work with a partner at your table (groups of 2).
2. Choose a habitat (desert, ocean, forest, etc.). 
3. Each partner works individually in their science notebook to plan out a “story” of an animal’s adventures through that habitat. 
4. Share your ideas with your partner, and then combine them. Take best ideas from both plans. You can use one Ozobot per person. 
5. If you need to look up habitats to get ideas, go to Epic!.
6. Chart paper – each team gets a 1/2 sheet.
7. Use pencil LIGHTLY to plan out route and where each code goes BEFORE they start adding any black lines and code. Don’t just start using markers immediately.
8. ONLY do the route with code. No additional 3D elements – like snakes and coyotes in the video – you can plan them, but not make them. Focus on the code. Code must be tested before we get to that point. The whole time SHOULD be on making the route as perfected as possible. 
9. Write your name on the paper.

Standards

Developing and Using Models: A practice of both science and engineering is to use and construct models as helpful tools for representing ideas and explanations. These tools include diagrams, drawings, physical replicas, mathematical representations, analogies, and computer simulations. Modeling tools are used to develop questions, predictions and explanations; analyze and identify flaws in systems; and communicate ideas. Models are used to build and revise scientific explanations and proposed engineered systems. Measurements and observations are used to revise models and designs.

21st Century Learning Skills:

Critical thinking and problem-solving: Students can use Ozobots to build a habitat, requiring them to plan, design, and troubleshoot as they encounter problems.
Collaboration: Students can work in teams to design and build the habitat, learning to communicate effectively and share responsibilities.
