IICS City Builders present their next draft of the city as well as a variety of projects linked to the city to parents, students and members of our school community. #IICSLearning#CITS@clinty@IICS1911
IICS City Builders use a land use map created earlier in the year to determine what structures to put on their platforms. #IICSLearning#CITS@clinty@IICS1911
IICS City Builders coordinate their geometric plans so that their transportation paths connect throughout their city. That takes communication and collaboration. Once the paths connect, they are ready to build according to our Zoning Plan #IICSLearning#CITS@clinty@IICS1911
IICS City Builders transfer their geometric plans to their cardboard platforms using points of intersection as reference points #IICSLearning#CITS@clinty@IICS1911
IICS Grade 7 City Builders learn the properties of lines, angles and polygons while making a street plan for their city. The students also need to make sure that their roads connect to their neighbors' roads to make a unified street plan. @IICS1911#IICSLearning#CITS
Great to have Clint work with our grade 7 City Builders #CITS and help them clean up and organize their demographic data so that we can create reports on our city's population
Citizens for our City in the Sea considered the major issues faced for our City in the Sea. These are called our Big Burning Questions and will serve as or research questions during our next science unit, Seek N' Solve. @IICS1911#IICSLearning#CITS
Tech Minister for the Grade 7 City in the Sea compiles a Master List from each student's list of 100 people they invited to live in our city. The list has over 3,000 names requiring them to use spreadsheet tools to do a demographic analysis. @IICS1911#IICSLearning@clinty#CITS
Grade 7 City Builders draw up zoning maps for their city. Finalists will soon be chosen. Citizens of the city will then hear the rational behind each design from their creator. @IICS1911#IICSLearning@clinty#CITS
Grade 7 City Builders become demographers, analyzing the list of 100+ people they invited to live on their platform - gender, age, nationality, profession and mother tongue #CITS@IICS1911@clinty
The all-girl group who designed the democratically elected City in the Sea govt model illustrates the process of how to turn an idea into the Law of the Land. The girls call themselves The Founding Females. #CITS#IICSLearning@IICS1911@clinty
Grade 7 City Builders pieced their individual digitized platforms together to experience a virtual fly over of the city they created. #CITS#IICSLearning@IICS1911@Clinty
Grade 7 City Builders digitize their model platforms to @cospaces_edu to model a virtual reality prototype of their first draft city #IICSLearning#CITS with @Clinty
