CSTA STANDARDS (K-2)1A-AP-10 Develop programs with sequences and simple loops, to express ideas or address a problem. (P5.2)

Objective:Teach Botley how to get home. [sequences, loops] (positional language)

Materials:Botley, remote programmer, coding cards, obstacle pieces.

Directions:1. Let’s plan Botley’s way home! Construct and place obstacles (see below), and then use the coding cards to map out a path that will lead him “home” (the orange circle). 2. Have Botley maneuver the first three obstacles, in any order, before ending at the orange circle:

Go through a tunnel.

Go next to a flagpole.

Go between two “rock” balls.

STOP on the orange circle. Botley, you’re home!
