Architecture Labeling

This worksheet is designed for students in Grades 5, 6, and 7 to build a clear, structured understanding of how AI agents are designed and how their parts work together. Students learn the four core components of an AI agent’s architecture-environment, sensors, decision-making, and actuators-and apply this knowledge to real-world-style scenarios. For each example, learners analyze what is happening and fill in the missing architectural component, strengthening both vocabulary and systems thinking.

Learning Goals

• Understanding Intelligent System Components (Grades 5-7) – Students identify the roles of environment, sensors, decision-making, and actuators.
• Structure & Function in Technology – Learners explain how each component contributes to an agent’s behavior.
• Vocabulary in Context – Students correctly use technical terms based on scenario clues.
• Systems Analysis & Classification – Learners break down complex systems into functional parts.

Instructional Benefits

• Teacher-Created Resource – Designed by educators to align with technology literacy, science, and ELA standards.
• Scenario-Based Learning – Uses relatable examples like thermostats, robots, drones, and video game characters.
• Clear Fill-in-the-Blank Format – Reinforces precise terminology and concept application.
• Flexible Classroom Use – Suitable for independent practice, small groups, review lessons, or assessment.
• Builds Foundations for STEM Thinking – Supports early understanding of how intelligent systems are designed and operate.

This printable worksheet helps students move beyond surface-level definitions to understand how AI agents actually function. Learners practice identifying system components, applying vocabulary accurately, and analyzing how information flows from sensing to action. Ideal for classroom or homeschool use, this no-prep activity strengthens critical thinking, technical vocabulary, and foundational knowledge of intelligent system architecture in a clear, student-friendly format.
