Activity Overview

This Activity continues from the PastaLand Activity, and asks students to design decision trees that group clothing by their shared traits or features that make them belong in a category of Winter or Not Winter clothes.  On the second day, students are asked to classify the clothes using only information contained in an SKU barcode.  

Total Activity Time: 20 minutes on Day 1; 15 minutes on Day 2

In-person Materials:  

  • Chart paper & markers for students to create worksheets
  • Small pictures of clothing

Prep:

Cut out pictures of clothing

Options for Differentiation

  • Assign heterogeneous ability partners for “Is It For Winter” activities
  • Pull aside a student or a small group of students who benefit from having directions read aloud. Read the directions aloud for these students and walk them through the activity as needed. Aim for maximal independence and minimal frustration.
  • Remind students that, if they finish early, they can continue to work on their “Explore AI Journal”, which students can work on as an ongoing project.
