How does coding make you feel?

Write your CODE.

turn right

turn left

Examples of “coding cards’” to use in lessons

it is important to note that the directions should be specific to the desired degree of the turn. For example, the students should say ‘’turn right a quarter turn’’. (90 degrees) Two of these cards stacked would make a ‘’half turn’’ (180 degrees)

Coding: Giving directions
Code: symbols used to transmit ideas 2 , , 4 , , 2

Learning criteria→ students ↓	I can communicate using directional words relative to the space.	I can follow oral instructions given to me using directional words	I can move a character on a cartesian plane with symbols such as arrows and numbers	I can change and alter my path through a grid.	I can write directions using symbols such as numbers and arrows (pseudo code)to communicate a path through a grid

Observational assessment checklist with anecdotal notes:

Learning goals:

We are learning to direct the character from a fairy tale through a sequence of different obstacles to an end point by giving directions (orally, in images and eventually through code).
We are learning to read, write and modify code.
