Students will identify the characters, setting, and sequential events of a story and draw a picture summary including the main points and eliminating extra details. Abstraction is the act of eliminating extra information, so students will try to include only the bare essentials to tell the story elements. The teacher will assist them in finding elements that are important to include and students will work in groups of 3 to tell the beginning, middle, and end in a pictorial representation.These materials were created by CodeVA in partnership with George Mason University and were funded by the National Science Foundation under Grant Award #1837380

During the American Revolution, the Patriots relied on sending coded messages to prevent the British from understanding the actions of the Continental Army. George Washington’s army used this cipher– though it is not a very secure system in its original form. The Patriots adapted it by using a randomized arrangement of the alphabet. This cipher was also used to some extent during the US Civil War.

This activity will ask students to trace various historical events, as well as state and national laws and their impacts on two different women in the South. Following along with a series of overlapping Twine stories, students will learn how computer programs can be constructed using simple variables and if-then statements to tell complex stories. Moreover, they will analyze how different women experienced historical events differently, leading to widely different points of view about the Civil War.

Students will use decomposition strategies to predict what will happen in a story based on the pictures through the use of the 5W and 1H question words. Students will identify the characters and setting of the story and make a prediction based on the information they gained from the images.These materials were created by CodeVA in partnership with George Mason University and were funded by the National Science Foundation under Grant Award #1837380

This resource is a 7-slide presentation detailing 5 goals students should have in mind when creating an algorithm. This guide targets younger learners in primary grades. It is available as a PowerPoint and a PDF.5 goals when trying to write an algorithm.● Defining the problem clearly● Breaking the problem down into small, simple parts● Define the solution for each part of the problem● Implementing the solution● Making it efficient (eventually)
This activity is from the Cyber.org website and covers the topic of …
This activity is from the Cyber.org website and covers the topic of the German Enigma Encryption machine that was used during World War II. Students will learn about how the Enigma machine worked and the process it used to encrypt messages. Students will be able to create their own Enigma machine using a normal size Pringles can and the activity sheet in PDF format. This is a great way to teach the concepts of encryption and a low cost way to give students a hands on approach to encrypting and decrypting messages.Ideas on how to use this activity would be to give the students a message to encrypt using their Pringles can Enigma machine or having students send an encrypted message to a classmate with the encryption key and have that student decrypt the message. To show the power of this type of encryption you can have other students try to decrypt the message without the key so they can see how difficult it would have been to crack the code during World War II.Link to the Cyber.org website for this activity
