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.

Watch and explore the different ways the mouse can move (back- and- forth, circular, straight, spinning), try to remember the password pattern to guess the correct password. The stronger and more difficult the code, the harder the password pattern will be to crack. Create a strong pattern so your classmates don’t crack your code!

This lesson incorporates computer science with an interesting enrichment topic for Environmental Science II, Astronomy - Dark Matter. Students will be able to visualize WHY scientists believe that 85% of matter in our universe is not the same as what we are made of. Using simple orbital speed kits, your class can combine their data and analyze it to see what happens to orbital speed with increasing distance from the barycenter of a galaxy. They can add mass to the center to represent dark matter and see how that increases the orbital speed - just like what Vera Rubin discovered in the 1960s.

When Columbus landed in the Bahamas (back in 1492) he made a mistake that people TODAY continue to perpetuate! Let’s discuss how we can fix this problem. We will show what we learned by designing a fancy schmancy poster highlighting the location of Virginia’s historical Algonquian, Siouan, and Iroquoian areas. Additionally, we will incorporate several important computer science terms (for example- debug).
