The students will learn about how circuits work within a computer to not only turn the computer on, but to store/recall data, run applications, and in general respond when the mouse is clicked or a key is pressed (input/output), etc..This lesson can be created as a class with the teacher demoing what the students tell him/her/them to do or if there are enough kits students can work with partners/small groups/indivdually to create circuits and draw conclusions about how computers use circuits to operate efficiently.Suggestion: Use this link to share with students how circuits work within the computers to store and recall memory to inspire their connective learning more :) start about 3:54 until 7:19. This information will help students understand how electical currents are used to store information, but also be able to make connections with what also happens when a key is pressed or the power is turned on and electricity flows through the open circuits within the computer's operating system (hardware).Video Link: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0A1e8eceIsY

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.
