NanoBots
NanoBots | Chris Gall
1 post | 3 read
Introducing a team of robots powerful enough to change the world--and yet smaller than the dot at the end of this sentence! A boy inventor creates the ultimate in high-tech superheroes that could one day save the world--but they have some smaller problems to take on first! NanoBots are tiny. They're almost too small to see, but they can each do a unique and important job: Medibot makes sure their Inventor never catches a cold.... Chewbots gobble up that gum the Inventor trampled into the carpet... Binobot scans the scene of a crime for clues the Inventor could never see... and Seekerbots explore to meet microscopic new creatures. These bots and their high-tech friends sure make the inventor's life easier, but when the most AWESOME robot in town is in real trouble, they must band together and prove that sometimes the SMALLEST helpers can be the BIGGEST heroes! Includes fun facts about real nanotechnology in the backmatter.

This SF would be great for CR with pages of all different kinds of “nanobots” that all have a specific task. Partners can read and discuss the different robots and use their imagination!! A fun activity would be to have the students try to come up with their own bot and draw a picture and what the bot‘s job is.
UDL strategy 8.3 foster collaboration and community works well for this partner read.

Chaseb ESOL strategy 16 integrate speaking, listening, reading and writing activities works for the bot partner activity.

DrSpalding Reading rockets is a high-quality resource and I like the idea of partner reading this particular text. Again excellent alignment with your English learner and universal design principles. 3y
