This lesson allows students to experience coding in a low stress, engaging environment while reinforcing thier learning about food webs and the interrelationships of the animals. No prior coding experience is required for the teacher or the students. Teachers and students will be walked through the steps of creating a cartoon demonstrating the transfer of energy in the food web. They will learn to use sequencing, loops, variables, and opperations on those variables all while creating a fun moving cartoon. Once students have learned the basic moves, they will be able to code further steps independently to add more interest to their cartoon.
