In Robotics, Mrs. Andolino and Ms. Rodriguez's classes had a special visit from the Librarian Ms. Gallagher. In class, students learned how to evaluate online sources for credibility/reliability to prepare for their upcoming Innovation project. Today, they used a venn diagram to compare and contrast two different websites to answer the question, "Is there life on other planets?!" Here are some photos of Mrs. Andolino's 1st period 6th graders, hard at work. Next time, they will learn more about the library databases and how to conduct effective research. #digitalliteracy #digitalcitizenship #digcit
