Students will be able to classify recyclable materials by material type and recycling symbol to identify patterns in proper waste sorting.

2

Students will be able to create a model of a recycling process with ozobots to identify essential steps in waste movement through a facility.

3

Students will be able to test and revise ozobot paths to improve how accurately materials are sorted in a simulated recycling facility.

4

Students will be able to develop and document a step-by-step plan for building and improving an ozobot recycling project.

5

Students will be able to explain why proper waste sorting matters for reducing contamination and supporting environmental sustainability.

Individual Ozobot Recycling Design Notebook

Students create a short design notebook that shows their recycling material sort, ozobot path sketch, testing notes, and final explanation of how their model works. The notebook proves each student can identify patterns, plan steps, and explain why correct sorting matters.

team

Team Ozobot Recycling Facility Demo and Poster

Teams build and present a working ozobot recycling path that simulates how waste moves through a recycling facility, along with a poster that explains the sorting rules and team improvements. The demo shows collaborative problem-solving and application of the full recycling process.
