Building a foundation: Unplugged coding activitytamara hope
This activity introduces preschool students to the concepts of persistence and algorithms through an unplugged coding activity where they build a structure. Students will plan a sequence to build a foundation and draw or write down the steps. They will work in small groups with limited supplies to construct a foundation that can hold a textbook for over 10 seconds, experiencing challenges that require persistence. The activity teaches students to decompose large tasks into smaller steps and arrange the steps in logical order, helping them understand sequencing and the process of achieving an outcome through trial and error.
1) The lesson teaches students about simple machines by having them design and build machines into their treehouse designs using levers, pulleys, inclined planes, wedges, wheels and axles, and screws.
2) Students will explore the practical uses of simple machines and generate ideas about concepts like force and motion.
3) The teaching activity has students start with a treehouse blueprint, learn about simple machines from an app, then use loose parts to design and build simple machines into their treehouse designs to accomplish tasks like getting into the treehouse or transporting food.
Simple Machines is an app that allows kids to interact with 6 simple machines: levers, pulleys, inclined planes, wedges, wheel and axles, and screws. For each machine, users can alter variables and see how the machine reacts. The app covers concepts of force, motion, inputs/outputs, and mechanical advantage through interactive activities involving each machine. It has potential to stimulate design ideas if parents engage children in questions about observations and what they are learning.

The student is able to suggest plausible reasons why investigations were fair or not and how they could be improved.
This lesson plan focuses on erosion and having students assess their prior knowledge to create models of erosion and solutions to prevent it. Students will take the lead in conducting their own investigation using provided materials like bottles, soil, and iPads. They will document their experiment findings and develop possible ways to minimize erosion based on their models. The lesson aims to have students think critically about how to effectively solve or reduce erosion through their research process. Their understanding will be assessed based on the investigation plans and models they create, as well as recordings of their models and discussions of their findings.
Jen was absent for the first two lessons of the unit on erosion due to a swimming carnival. In Lesson 3, Jen participated in a sorting activity to identify rock and plant minerals and helped construct a storyboard about rehabilitation. Jen answered all questions correctly on an erosion quiz. In Lesson 4, Jen conducted an investigation into how water erodes sand castles and identified a strategy to minimize erosion. In Lesson 5, Jen worked with a partner to investigate how different landscapes are affected by water erosion and was able to explain her findings and draw conclusions from the experiment.
This lesson plan outlines an erosion experiment to be conducted by Year 4 students. The students will create three soil landscapes with different materials (dirt, dirt and bark, dirt and plants) and test how each reduces erosion when water is poured on them. By conducting this experiment, students will understand the cause and effect relationship of water erosion and identify features that make their investigation a fair test. They will draw conclusions by discussing their results and comparing with classmates to build a common understanding. The lesson aims to teach students how water impacts the environment and how to investigate ways to reduce that impact through experimentation and thinking like scientists.
This lesson plan outlines an experiment to teach 4th grade students about how water erosion impacts the environment over time. Students will work in groups to test how water at different angles affects model sandcastles, recording their observations. They will then analyze the results, discuss how landscapes may change over time due to erosion, and complete a quiz to reflect on their learning.
This lesson plan aims to expand students' understanding of minerals and their importance to plants and soil. Students will investigate different types of minerals, where they are found, and their purposes. They will link this to the process of erosion through exploring the rehabilitation of a mine. Activities include sorting minerals, learning how plants obtain minerals from soil, and creating a storyboard showing the steps of mine rehabilitation. The lesson aims to help students recognize human impacts on landscapes and explore ways to reduce environmental effects.

How to Make a Field Mandatory in Odoo 17Celine George
In Odoo, making a field required can be done through both Python code and XML views. When you set the required attribute to True in Python code, it makes the field required across all views where it's used. Conversely, when you set the required attribute in XML views, it makes the field required only in the context of that particular view.
