SUMMARY:METRICS by Nevada Robotics at the DISCOVERY Children’s Museum
DESCRIPTION:METRICS at the DISCOVERY Children’s Museum in Las Vegas \nNevada Robotics will be at the DISCOVERY Thursday April 10 for a PreK/K METRICS workshop. \nMETRICS – Mentoring Educators Teaching Robotics and Innovation in Computer Science – is engaging and ongoing training using Nevada Robotics Books and Bots lessons. PreK and K Books and Bots lessons partner high quality picture books with robotics lessons to promote literacy and to teach computer science.  All lesson activities meet state computer science\, ELA\, and math standards. Also\, lessons provide the opportunity for teachers to incorporate\, and for students to practice\, Social Emotional Learning competencies such as teamwork\, perseverance\, communication\, and collaboration. \nMETRICS trainees receive stipends\, classroom robot sets\, free lessons\, free books for the classroom and for their students\, and all necessary teaching materials and supplies to implement robots in their classrooms. \nIn PreK/K METRICS\, teachers become confident coders and learn how to use robots as tools to meet PreK and K literacy and math standards\, and how to develop early readers\, critical thinkers\, and problem solvers. Graduates of the training series become members of the DRI Educator Academy and receive free access to lessons\, resources\, and technology support. \nThis workshop is at the DISCOVERY Children’s Museum in Las Vegas. Sign in is at 4:15 p.m. Dinner will be served at 4:30 p.m.\, and training runs from 5 p.m. – 7:30 p.m. \nThis training series is full.  \nPlease email nvrobotics@www-dev.dri.edu to be added to the Nevada Robotics email list\, and to learn about upcoming professional development opportunities. \nTo stay connected to Nevada Robotics\, follow us on Instagram\, Facebook\, and X – @nevadarobotics. \nThank you to our partner the DISCOVERY Children’s Museum in Las Vegas for providing a beautiful training space for METRICS\, and for supporting Clark County PreK/K educators.
