Students using Ozobots

Students in Mrs. Phalen’s third grade reading classes have been learning about our Solar System. Mrs. Garner reached out to Neonet and their Makerspace media services specialist arranged for the third graders to borrow Ozobots. Using these Ozobots, students were able to place the planets in their correct orbital path around the sun and observe a hands-on rotation of the planets around the sun. 

This was an engaging activity that incorporated technology into a reading unit, allowing students to see the connection between subjects.
