Mini Minds, Major Thinking: Math + Computation
Tune in for a new episode of PDTV! In this episode, we visit Edith Bowen Laboratory School on the campus of Utah State University to see how second-grade teacher Dr. Joey Kozlowski is using a self-created robotics curriculum to support students through mathematics. Dr. Kozlowski blends early childhood mathematical thinking with early computational thinking, giving students hands-on opportunities to measure, build shapes, identify patterns, and solve real problems using coding sequences. Watch to see how math and robotics come together in amazing ways for young learners.
