In "My Weirder-est School: Miss. Aker is a Maker!" by Dan Gutman, learners will enjoy the adventures of AJ and his friends as they learn about the Maker Movement and build their own robot drone. Students will read two chapters per week of this accessible novel. Kahoot! review, online discussions, and suggested maker projects and STEM challenges will keep kids engaged and give them opportunities to develop their writing and literacy skills. Although this class is for all kids , it will be especially helpful for neurodivergent learners with learning differences and reluctant readers who need low reading level high interest books to develop reading fluency and comprehension. It is designed with supports in mind that help accommodate students with dyslexia, dysgraphia, and other learning differences. Students will be able to respond to the text in multiple ways by drawing diagrams, making videos, displaying projects, and contributing to discussions in our online classroom. This is a flexible schedule class which does not meet live. All interaction will be in our online classroom. The teacher will contribute to online discussions and provide feedback for student work. Week 1: Maker Movement Opening Question: What kind of things do you like to make or build? Share about some things you have made for yourself or other people. Watch a video of the teacher reading chapters 1-2 to build engagement. Contribute to our KWL about the Maker Movement Read chapters 3-4 Reflection Questions: What was awesome? What was a bummer? What was funny? Thoughts and questions Kahoot! review of Chapters 1-4 Questions for discussion: Why do you think it would be fun to have your own "Fab Lab"? What would you put in it? Challenge of the Week: Can you make a cupcake car, a food sculpture or other delicious invention? Be sure to take a picture and share it in the classroom when you are done.

Challenge of the Week: Get started on creating your own "Fab Lab" by gathering supplies. It can be a corner of your play area or a box you can move around your house then store when you are done. Be sure you have a plan for organizing and storing the things you collect. Engineers and scientists need to have a clean and organized workspace so they always know where to find the materials they need. Share a picture in the classroom of what you come up with. Week 3: Opening Question: If you could have your own personal robot, what would you have it do for you? Draw a graphic novel page of your favorite part of the book so far.

受講に必要なもの
Students will need their own copy of "My Weirder-est School #8: Miss Aker is a Maker" by Dan Gutman. Students are welcome to read the book in hard copy or on e-book or audio book. Text to Speech accompanied by reading can be a good strategy for dyslexic learners as enlarging the print in e-book format. Plenty of paper, colored pencils or pens, and something to write with are required for most sessions. There may also be templates to print out. Since this class includes maker projects, some simple household and craft supplies as well as scissors, glue, and tape may be helpful. The learner has the option of creating a marshmallow shooter (but could also use cotton balls). Learners are also encouraged to create something with food and then eat it.
