LD1a | 
Listens to and follows spoken directions. | 
| 
MD1c | 
Counting objects using one-to-one correspondence. | 
| 
MD5a | 
Uses mathematical language to describe
  experiences involving measurement. | 
| 
SD1d | 
Uses simple equipment to experiment,
  observe, and increase understanding. | 
| 
SD1e | 
Records observation through dictating to
  an adult, drawing pictures, or using other forms of writing. | 
| 
SD1f | 
Predicts what will happen next based on
  previous experience. | 
| 
K | |
| 
ELACCKW2 | 
Uses a combination of drawing, dictating,
  and writing to compose informative/explanatory texts in which they name what
  they are writing about and supply some information about the topic. | 
| 
MCCKG1 | 
Describe objects in the environment using
  names of shapes, and describes the relative positions of these objects using
  terms such as above, below, beside, in front of, behind, and next to. | 
| 
MCCKCC3 | 
Write numbers from 0 to 20. Represent a
  number of objects with a written numeral 0-20. | 
| 
SKC3a | 
Use ordinary hand tools and instruments to
  construct, measure, and look at objects. | 
| 
S1CS5. | 
Describe and compare things in terms of number,
  shape, texture, size, weight, color and motion. | 
| 
SKCS2 | 
Students will have computation and
  estimation skills necessary for analyzing data and following scientific
  explanations. | 
| 
SKCS4 | 
Students will use the ideas of system,
  model, change, and scale in exploring scientific and technological matter. | 
| 
S1CS5 | 
Students will communicate scientific ideas
  and activities clearly. | 
| 
1st Grade | |
| 
ELACC1W2 | 
Write informative/explanatory texts in
  which they name a topic, supply some facts about the topic, and provide some sense
  of closure. | 
| 
ELACC1SLt5 | 
Add drawings or other visual displays to
  descriptions when appropriate to clarify idea, thoughts, and feelings. | 
| 
MCC1G1 | 
Distinguish between defining attributes
  versus non-defining attributes, build and draw shapes to possess defining
  attributes. | 
| 
MCC1MD4 | 
Organize, represent, and interpret data
  with up to three categories; ask and answer questions about the total number
  of data points, how many in each category, and how many more or less are in
  one category than in another. | 
| 
S1CS2 | 
Students will have computation and
  estimation skills necessary for analyzing data and following scientific
  explanations. | 
| 
S1CS3 | 
Students will use tools and instruments
  for observing, measuring, and manipulating objects in scientific activities. | 
| 
S1CS5 | 
Students will communicate scientific ideas
  and activities clearly. | 
5. Procedures for Teachers
1) Check the remaining process to complete Bee-Bot project.
2) Finish to construct necessary settings (place, people, things) for their robots.
3) Revise the story by considering the grid that children created.
4) Check the routes for programming.
5) Program Bee-Bots while recording commands by using commands cards.
6) Help children practice how to share their work with families and guests
- The story we created...
- We decorated…. on the grid
- We found and decided the routes like this
- We programmed Bee-Bots like this.
