This lesson is written to be two(2) 30 minute lessons.

Day 1: The first lesson will be an introduction to creating algorithms using a Beebot emulator. The first lesson is on the screen with the whole class. Once explained, students can use the emulator through google classroom or in small group settings.

Day 2: Students will solve math problems and write an algorithm to get their pawn to the correct answer on the grid. This lesson will begin with a whole group review. Students can play the game in pairs or small groups.

In this unplugged CS lesson, students will learn the importance of giving detailed directions when sharing ideas. This transfers to programming when students are told that when they provide instructions to the computer, they too need to be detailed and specific. This lesson is part of the Virginia K-12 Computer Science Pipeline which is partly funded through a GO Virginia grant in partnership with Chesapeake Public Schools, Loudoun County Public Schools, and the Loudoun Education Foundation.

Algorithm Picture Lesson
Rating

The goal of this activity is to build critical thinking skills and excitement for Computer Science / Computational Thinking, while laying a foundation of fundamental programming concepts. By scaffolding basic concepts like sequencing and algorithms in an unplugged activity, students who are intimidated by computers can still build a foundation of understanding. In this lesson, students will learn how to develop an algorithm and encode it into a program.By "programming" one another to draw pictures, students experience some of the core concepts of programming in a fun and accessible way. The class will start by having students view a video of a simple program demonstrating how to develop instructions for building a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. Students will start with simple shapes, and progress to the coding of a specific drawing that other students will then try to replicate (“running the program”). If there is a desire to have a more of a Math slant on the lesson, the drawing could take place on graph paper. Students would then use the coordinates to complete the drawing.

The lawmaking process, as described in the US Constitution, is essentially an alogorithm that allows an idea to become a law. In this lesson, students will analyze and evaluate the process for creating laws at the Federal level and create a flow chart that shows the lawmaking process in an alogoritmic sequence.
