By "programming" one another to draw pictures, students get an opportunity to - Send to students
experience some of the core concepts of programming in a fun and accessible way.
The class will start by having students use symbols to instruct each other to color . Visible , Hidden
squares on graph paper in an effort to reproduce an existing picture. If there’s time,

In this set of puzzles, students will begin with an introduction (or review depending - Send to students
on the experience of your class) of Code.org's online workspace. There will be
videos pointing out the basic functionality of the workspace including the Run , . Visible , Hidden
Reset , and Step buttons. Also discussed in these videos: dragging Blockly
blocks, deleting Blockly blocks, and connecting Blockly blocks. Next, students will
practice their sequencing and debugging skills in maze. From there, students will
see new types of puzzles like Collector, Artist, and Harvester when they learn the
very basics of loops.

By the time students reach this lesson, they should already have plenty of practice - Send to students
using repeat loops, so now it's time to mix things up. While loops are loops that
continue to repeat commands while a condition is met. While loops are used . Visible , Hidden
when the programmer doesn't know the exact number of times commands need to
be repeated, but does know what condition needs to be true in order for the loop
to continue repeating. For example, students will be working to fill holes and dig
dirt in Farmer. They will not know the size of the holes or the height of the
mountains of dirt, but the students will know they need to keep filling the holes and
digging the dirt as long as the ground is not flat.
