This bundle includes a card game, a word jumble, a word search, a matching activity, and a colouring page!

Using a variety of materials, create collages with images of robots and non-robots. Compare and discuss images to create a definition of what makes a robot different from another device.

Identify important components of a robot by comparing them to human anatomy. Create a labelled diagram of a robot with explanations of its parts and their functions.

Distinguish between robots' abilities, and their uses. Think critically about the value of work done by robots, as well as the positive and negative impact this work has on daily life. Compile a list of guidelines for the creators of robots.

Explore the components that make up a robot, as well as the process by which they are built and programmed. Using visual aids and narrative passages, tell the “life story” of a robot.

Examine and think critically about versions of “goodness” presented in the media. Explore the impact of advertising and how it is used to influence our decisions about right and wrong.

Examine the role of rules in our daily lives. Explore the impact of rules on family, the environment, and school. Think critically about the difference between rules for some and rules for all.

Explore and think critically about what makes people happy. Examine and compare the different definitions of happiness, and develop strategies for sharing happiness with others.

Identify and describe what becoming a better person is about. Explore and think critically about the way people interact in their daily lives, and how acts of “goodness” can make you or others feel. Create a “Gallery of Goodness” to present your findings.

Examine the idea of being selfish, and identify and describe what way it can help or hurt you and others. Explore this idea through dramatic role-playing. 

Think critically about what it means to be “curious” and why it is, or is not an important thing to be. Complete a brainstorming and questioning activity to guide and practice curiosity about a personally meaningful topic. Set goals for future learning or achievement inspired by curiosity, and create a scrap book to track and document exploration. 

Make connections between hypothetical scenarios and real-life experiences by role playing as a fictional character, meeting new and unfamiliar people from a different world. Create an imagined avatar that is like oneself, but also adapted to a different environment and society. Think critically about the challenges that might be faced by people from two different worlds meeting for the first time. Draw from real world technology and ideas to design tools or devices that would support harmonious interaction between these characters. Think about how these imagined tools, if invented, could help future generations.

Create an illustrated scroll to tell the story of a brave act of heroism. Develop personally meaningful criteria to define bravery by evaluating traits and actions of individuals in everyday scenarios. Identify an individual perceived to demonstrate bravery in some way. Explore the risks taken and choices made by the individual that support the opinion that they should be showcased for their bravery.

Develop a foundational understanding of the concept of “equality” and make personal connections to an equality-related challenge (e.g., selecting a toy or career path based on personal interest) faced by a group within the community. Write a first-person narrative that advocates for a proposed solution or change from the perspective of an individual facing constraints on their choices, due to them being different from others in the same situation.

Think critically about the qualities that define a good leader, consider which of these qualities are important in different scenarios, and identify qualities of leadership in oneself. Select and apply qualities they feel are important to create a profile of a new leader for a local band of comic book heroes working to solve a problem in their community.

Evaluate the scientific truth of a claim made by a company promoting their product. Formulate a question and hypothesis that can be tested and think critically about the results of the testing to determine the “truth” behind the claim. Consider the application of findings and impact of that application on the natural world.
