Week 6 - Trombone Shorty is one of my favorite grade 6 technology units because integrating music and technology is so much fun! Trombone Shorty (click to see previous post) is the perfect Design Thinking Story to bridge into the use of the Ozobots, Makey Makey, Garageband, and the Micro:Bit. | |
I love using the Mixtapes with Flip because it allows designers to share with each other and enjoy the diversity of how music is created.
My favorite design challenge of this week is the Micro:Bit recycled cardboard instrument. Designers really take this challenge to another level with their ability to incorporate different recycled materials and programming the Micro:Bit to play a song that they have designed.
