#HOW TO CREATE A GLYPH CODE#
This walkthrough puts a custom glyph on the indicator margin whenever the word "todo" appears in a code comment. Subscribe to the Inspiration Laboratories newsletter.You can customize the appearance of editor margins by using custom editor extensions. If you have time, you can have students talk about their choices. When students completed their builds, I took a photo. Some students gave their creations expressive eyebrows as well. They also had washable markers to draw on mouths to represent how they were feeling today. Then, they went through the buffet and chose the pieces they needed. “What does yellow legs mean?” They answered, “First grade!”īefore selecting any bricks, we read the instruction page together and students circled their choices. I asked them to look at their instruction page. I created a buffet of LEGO pieces for my students to choose from. If you don’t have gears, what pieces could you used for arms? Don’t have enough of the yellow pieces we used for legs? You can build legs your own legs by stacking bricks. You can modify the pieces to match what you have in your classroom. I created the LEGO glyph STEM based on DUPLO bricks I had in my classroom. If you’d like an editable version, let me know and I’ll share it. The body color (green, red, or yellow) represents the builder’s favorite season.Ĭheck out the Build a LEGO Glyph instruction sheet I created. For example, yellow legs represent first grade. Each part of the build means something about the builder. In this case, we’re using LEGO DUPLO bricks. A glyph is an image or symbol that stand for something else. I start by talking about what a glyph is. I like to have each student say their names and introduce something about themselves. After reading, discuss with students why names are important.
The book showcases a variety of names and provides the pronunciations for each. After much convincing, the little girl decides to do just that. Her mother tells her that names are songs and she should sing her name for the teacher. On her first day of school, the teacher can’t pronounce a girl’s name and her classmates make fun of her. Your Name Is a Song shows us just how beautifully important names are. I want them to know I value who they are and learning their names is important.
I never want to presume what a student should be called based on what my roster says. On the first day of school, I greet each of my students and ask them their names. Your Name Is a Song by Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow is a must read.
Build a LEGO Glyph STEM Activity Read Your Name Is a Song I am using the LEGO glyphs in my first grade science class, but you could use them in other elementary grades as well. It’s a great way to learn more about everyone.
I like to pair the activity with Your Name Is a Song by Jamilah Thompkins-Bigelow. Try this LEGO glyph STEM idea as a get to know you activity in the first week of school.
