Unplugged LessonsU

Teacher Guide Revision 160511.1a

Throughout this book, you will see dozens of “unplugged” activities that have been created to be run without access to the internet, and often, without the use of any technology at all!

Why Unplugged?

Unplugged activities are more than just an alternative for the days when the computer lab is full. They are intentionally placed kinesthetic opportunities that help students digest complicated concepts in ways that relate to their own lives. Designed for groups or entire classrooms, these computer science activities increase exposure to collaboration, creativity, and solution design (planning).

At Code.org, we use unplugged lessons to introduce each idea group before we present them online. This gives students a shared physical experience for teachers to relate back to when working on complex puzzles.

Can I Skip Unplugged Activities?

We highly suggest that you don’t! Unplugged activities might take a little more prep the �rst time you teach them, but the e�ects are indescribable. Students react well to physical learning, and a single thirty minute unplugged activity can save many hours of confusion in the computer lab.

How Can I Get Help Understanding Unplugged?

We have gathered some videos and resources for you at code.org/curriculum/unplugged. Visit that site to see helpful videos, or to witness select activities in action!

Revision 151208.1a

These tips will help you get unstuck when solving Code.org puzzles!

Step 1: Understand the Puzzle Step 2: Create a Plan (Pick one or more)

Step 3: Perform and Perfect the Plan Step 4: Check Your Work

What does the puzzle want you to do?

Can you talk about the problem in

your own words?

Were you given any code to start?

What does it do?

Why do you think it’s there?

What is the goal of the puzzle?

Have you solved any other puzzles

that are like this one?

Write an algorithm.

Guess and check as you go.

Draw a picture of what you want to do.

Try working backward.

Solve one small piece at a time.

Compare to a puzzle that you’ve

already solved.

Did you solve the puzzle?

If not, hunt for one error at a time.

Retest your plan after every change.

If you start to get frustrated, take a

deep breath, or leave your screen for

a minute. When you come back, you

may see what was causing the trouble!

Ask questions. Maybe one of your

friends can help you �gure out where

your plan goes awry.

Does your answer solve the puzzle?

Did you hit all of the goals of this

puzzle?

Now that you have one way to solve

the puzzle, is there an easier way to do

it?

If you change this solution a little, will

it work for any other puzzles?

Could you explain your solution to help

5

Talk about these steps with your students so they have tools to get themselves

unstuck while working on puzzles. Also, use these steps to ask leading questions to

students who ask for help.

G

Step 1: Understand the Puzzle

Step 2: Create a Plan

* Can one (or more) of the following strategies be used?

- Guess and test

- Draw a map

- Draw a picture

- Look for a pattern

- Compare to a previously solved puzzle

- Solve a simpler problem

* Draw a diagram

* Solve an equivalent problem

* Identify subgoals

* Work backwards

* Do you understand the situation or puzzle prompt?

* Can you restate the problem in your own words?

* Do you understand the code you are given and why?

- What role does the code play?

* Do you know what the goal of the puzzle is?

* Is this problem similar to another puzzle you have solved?

Teacher Guide Revision 140903.1a 6

Code.org Puzzle Solving Recipe(Continued)

G

Step 3: Perform and Perfect the Plan

Step 4: Check Your Work

* Is your solution correct? Does your answer satisfy all goals

(number of blocks, use of a particular block/concept)?

* Can you see an easier or more efficient solution?

* Can you see how you can extend your solution to a more

general puzzle pattern?

* Attempt to solve the puzzle based on the plan that you

devised. If the strategy did not succeed, look carefully at the

feedback provided by any errors that were created, and modify

your plan.

* Test and change your strategy often. Don’t be afraid to try

solutions before you know that they are perfect. You can often

reach the right answer by using trial and error each step of the

way.

* Take a walk. If you start to get frustrated, leave the screen.

Look away. Think of something else for a little while. When you

get back, the answer just might come to you!

* Talk with others. They may be able to give you hints, or even

explain how something works so that you can discover a

solution.

H

Revision 140827.1a

These debugging tips will help you keep moving when you get stuck!

Work to Avoid Mistakes

Debugging

Read the directions.

What is the goal of the puzzle?

Take it slow and go one step at a time.

Can you talk about the problem in

your own words?

Were you given any code to start?

What does it do?

Why do you think it’s there?

Look for problems each step of the way.

Describe what was supposed to happen.

Describe what is going wrong.

Does the di�erence between what was

supposed to happen and what did

happen give you any clues?

Fix one thing at a time, then describe

how the result changed.

Try leaving “breadcrumbs” in your

program. You can put clues inside your

code (like having your program “say”

something) to let you know when each

chunk runs.

Try doing each task as its own chunk,

then put all of the pieces together at

the end so it is easier to see what each

thing does.

Try at least three ways of �xing

problems before you ask for help.

Talk to a friend. Maybe one of your

classmates can help you �gure out

where your plan goes awry.

8

Talk about these steps with your students so they are thoughtful when preparing

and troubleshooting their solutions.

Step 1: Understand the Task at Hand

Step 2: Pay Attention to Directions & Work

Step 4: One Step at a Time

Step 3: Take it Slow

Work to Avoid Errors

* Do you understand the situation or puzzle prompt?

* Can you restate the problem in your own words?

* Do you understand the code you are given and why?

- What role does the code play?

* Do you know what the goal of the puzzle is?

* Is this problem similar to another puzzle you have solved?

* Make sure that you review the directions several times

while you work. It is possible that you will see something

new once you understand the task a little more.

* Check your work frequently to make sure that it behaves

the way that you intended.

* Add only one element at a time, and make sure the solution

still works. It’s much harder to find mistakes when you add

lots of new things all at once.

* When you rush through a task, you’re more likely to make

mistakes that you could have avoided if you were paying

attention.

Code.org Debugging RecipeG


Step 4: Hidden Bugs

Step 3: Where Does it First Stop Working?

Step 2: What Was Supposed to Happen?

Step 1: Something’s Wrong!

Debugging

* If you still can’t find your error, try leaving “breadcrumbs” in your

program. You can put statements in special places to see which

ones activate and which ones don’t. Those should provide much

needed additional information.

* If you’re still stuck, try going away for a bit, then coming back. A

fresh point of view can work wonders!

* Sometimes it helps to have an extra set of eyes. If you’re out of

ideas, see if someone else will come take a look with you.

* Step through little by little until you find the first place

that your solution goes wrong, then fix that error.

* Step through again to find the next place it goes wrong,

then fix that.

* Repeat until your program works!

* If you noticed that something was wrong, then your

solution probably does something different from what was

asked.

- What does it do?

- What does that tell you?

* Watch your progress carefully so that you notice errors as

soon as they happen.

Rethinking Classroom Strategies for Teaching Computer Science

G

Teacher Guide Revision 160422.1a

Ditch the UniformityStudents learn at di�erent rates. They also come into technology with vastly di�erent skills. Trying to keep everyone on the same page will alienate both the bottom third and top third of learners. Take the pressure o� of everyone by having a list of “approved” activities to focus on when they’ve �nished their class exercise.

Frequent BreaksTeachers are used to helping their class get very focused and encouraging students to work quietly until an activity is done. In computer science, students often bene�t from small and frequent breaks, even if it’s just switching to a new activity for a few minutes. Try having a student write a sentence or two about what they’re trying to do, or keep a notebook, like a biologist or chemist might.

CollaborateIt’s really hard for a programmer to “cheat”. Collaboration is a requirement out in the real world. This means helping one another solve problems, researching issues on the Internet, and looking at what others have done in similar situations. The only bad method is claiming another’s work as your own.

Don’t be a Know-It-AllWe often think that being a teacher means being an expert. In computer science, it’s really much more important to be a cheerleader. Let the students know that it’s possible for them to quickly become better at this than you are. Foster determination. Encourage students to monitor themselves, and �nd answers for one another. Let them �gure things out for themselves, then let them teach you.

Building a FoundationLearning Persistence through Challenges

Revision 140902.1a

Directions:

1) Divide students into groups of 3 or 4.

2) Explain the rules of the challenge, provided on the other page.

3) Provide each group with limited supplies and make it known that they will get no more.

4) Challenge the class to think ahead to the problem and plan out their method of building their first tower.

5) Encourage students to begin building, then have them alert you when they think they’ve met the challenge described by the rules.

6) Test each structure. Is it taller than the cup? Does it hold a book?

7) If not, have students enter a cycle of planning, fixing, testing, and planning again until the challenge has been met.

8) Congratulate the students as they succeed and take pictures of the suc-cessful towers (if possible) to upload to the Code.org site!

Real-Life AlgorithmsPaper Airplane Worksheet

Revision 140710.1a

You can use algorithms to help describe things that people do every day. In this activity, we will create an algorithm to help each other make paper airplanes.

Cut out the steps of making an airplane below. Glue the six the correct steps, in order, onto a separate piece of paper. Trade your finished algorithm with another person or group and let them use it to make an actual flying model paper plane!

An algorithm is a list of instructions for accomplishing a task. We follow algorithms everyday when it comes to activities like making the bed, making breakfast, or even getting dressed in the morning.

These images are not in order. First, describe what is happening in each picture on

the line to its left, then match the action to its order in the algorithm. The first one

has been done for you as an example.

Sometimes you can have more than one algorithm for the same activity. The order

of some of these steps can be changed without changing the final product. Use the

letters on the images below to create two algorithms for making a paper airplane.

Revision 140709.2a

Sometimes, when you know that you will be doing something over and over, it is helpful to know how many times it needs to be done before you begin. That way, you can keep track of how many actions you have left as you go.

Example:

If your mom wanted you to play her favorite song over and over, she wouldn’t say:

“Please play my song, play my song, play my song, play my song.”

She would most likely say:

“Please play my song four times.”

We are going to practice using loops to explain how many times we should perform an action while we learn a new dance!

Come on everybody, let’s do The Iteration!

Name: Date:

New Word!

Say it with me: Loop

The action of doing something over and over again.

Loop

When you repeat something multiple times, like clapping

your hands, you are perfoming a loop of that action.

Looping can save space!

What if we wanted to take The Iteration dance below and make more loops inside? Can you circle the actions that we can group into a loop and cross out the ones that we don’t need anymore? Write a number next to each circle to let us know how many times to repeat the action.

The first line has been done for you.

Revision 140829.1a

Sample program as algorithm

This program has you choose a card. If the card is red, your team gets a point. Else, the card must be black. If your black card is higher than 9, then the other team gets a point, else your card must be black and lower than or equal to 9, and you get as many points as are on your card.

Sample program from above as pseudocode (like code, but in no particular language)

If (CARD is RED)


Else

If ( CARD is higher than 9)

Award OTHER team 1 point

Else

Award YOUR team the same

number of points on the card

If (card.color == RED) {

points.yours = points.yours + 1;

}

Else {

If ( card.value > 9) {

points.other = points.other + 1;

}

Else {

points.yours = points.yours + card.value;

Functional InstructionsLearning Variables and Functions through CraftUnplugged

U

Revision 140702.1a

Sometimes you want to do certain instructions over and over again. That’s where functions come in handy! Group all repeated instructions into one place, give them a simple name, then you can call that entire group at the same time just by using the name you gave it.

What if you want to do something over and over, but don’t know what supplies you’ll be working with ahead of time? This is the perfect place for variables! Variables are just placeholder words that you can put into your program so that you know where your *actual* supplies are supposed to go, once you know what they are.

Directions:

1) Take a program that contains several sets of identical instructions.

2) Move one or more of the sets of identical instructions into the “Skills” areas of the Skills Sheet.

3) Rewrite the original program, using the skill names instead of actually writing out the group of instructions that the skills describe.

Revision 140610.1a

One of the most magnificent structures in the computer science world is the function. Functions (sometimes called procedures) are mini programs that you can use over and over inside of your bigger program.

A fantastic way to compare functions to something we see in our everyday lives is to look at songs. Songs often have certain groups of lyrics that repeat over and over. We call such a group a “chorus.”

Directions:

1) Divide into groups of 4, 5, or 6.

2) Give each group several copies of the Songwriting Worksheet.

3) Play a short song for the class that contains a clear chorus that does not change from verse to verse.

4) Challenge the class to identify (and write down) the chorus.

5) Compare results from each group. Did everyone get the same thing?

Let’s make a function for the bits that we use most often

so that we don’t need to write so much as we go.

New Word!

Say it with me: Func-shun

A piece of code that you can call over and over again.

Look at the lyrics for the two songs below.

If it were your job to write these songs as computer programs, what chunk of code from each would you turn into a function so that you could use it over and over again with just one word?

Circle the segments of each program that repeat most often. Is everything that you circled exactly the same? If so, that can be your chorus!

Finish by writing the chorus for each song on the Songwriting Worksheet and give it a name. Those are your functions!

Song 1: I'm a Nut

I’m a little acorn brownsitting on the cold, cold ground.

Everybody steps on methat is why I'm cracked, you see.

Real-Life AlgorithmsDice Race Activity

Revision 140710.1a

You can use algorithms to help describe things that people do every day. In this activity, we will create an algorithm to help each other understand the Dice Race game.

The hardest part about getting a problem ready for a computer can be figuring out how to describe real-life activities. We’re going to get some practice by playing and describing the Dice Race game.

Read the rules below, then play a couple rounds of the Dice Race game. As you’re playing, think about how you would describe everything that you’re doing. What would it look like from the computer’s point of view?

Name: Date:

1) Set each player’s score to 0.

2) Have the first player roll.

3) Add points from that roll to player one’s total score.

4) Have the next player roll.

5) Add points from that roll to player two’s total score.

6) Each player should go again two more times.

7) Check each player’s total score to see who has the most points.

8) Declare Winner.

Use the space below to play through the Dice Race game.

When you’re done, use the bottom of the page to create an algorithm (list of steps) that someone else could use to learn how to play.

Now, take the steps that you’ve used to play the game above, and write them

down in the slots below. Take advantage of the repeat loop to avoid having to

write down instructions more than once.

InternetHow the Internet Does What it Does

U

Revision 150517.1a

Directions:

1) Create your own DNS table, similar to what is shown here.

2) Have the class help you fill in the blank spots in the table.Pick your favorite URLs and find their IP addresses using a site like www.getip.com.

3) Divide into groups of 3 to 5. 4) Assign each group an IP address from the table, and each person in the group a

position:

* The Message Writer* The Internet* The Server (carries the IP Address)* The Return Internet (Optional)* The Message Receiver (Optional)

5) Each group will draw an IP address Card and a Delivery Card to find out where their message is going and what their method of message delivery (Wi-Fi, Cable/DSL, or Fiber Optic Cable) will be.

6) The Message Writer will craft a note to send to the server.

7) The Internet will rip the message up into small pieces called packets, then deliver each packet one at a time to the Server with the IP address that was drawn from the IP address Card stack.

8) The Server will make sure that the message arrives in order, then will send each packet off one at a time with the Return Internet (can be the same person or different person than the original Internet).

9) The Return Internet will deliver each piece back to the Message Receiver (can be the same person or different person than the Message Writer) and put it back together.

10) The Message Receiver will wait for all of the pieces to arrive, then read the message to be sure it arrived correctly!

Rules:

1) The Internet must rip the message into exactly four packets.

2) If the Internet drops a packet, they have to pick it up and go back to the start to deliver it again.

3) The server has to wait for all of the message pieces to arrive before it can begin to send the message along.

Revision 150517.1a

These cards correlate with different methods ofdelivering messages over the Internet.

(Print enough to have one card for each group.)

Wi-Fi Fiber Optic

DSL Cable

Types:

1) Wi-Fi: Convenient, but spotty. Wi-Fi doesn’t require cables, but since the signal bounces all over the place, packets can get lost pretty easily.

Simulation: Internet must carry each packet on their shoulder (no hands).

2) Cable/DSL: Fairly good at delivering messages, but you must be connected to a wire. Simulation: Internet must carry each packet on the back of one hand and must keep the other hand touching a wall, desk, chair or the floor at all times.

3) Fiber Optic Cable: The best at delivering messages, but you must be connected to a wire. Simulation: Internet can carry packets in hand, but must keep the other hand touching a wall, desk, chair or the floor at all times.

The InternetHow the Internet Does What it Does

Revision 140710.1a

The DNS has gone out, and now you’re in charge of delivering information all over the Internet! Use the DNS Look-Up Table to figure out where each packet is supposed to go.

Draw a line from each packet to the server where it is supposed to be delivered. The first one has been done for you.

This message is being delivered from someone at code.org to someone at thinkersmith.org. Draw the path that the message is likely to take.

CrowdsourcingWorking together to make big things happen

Revision 140710.1a

Sometimes you have a big job that needs to get done, but it feels like it will take forever. Crowdsourcing is a way of using teamwork to make the job go much faster!

In this game, we’ll use crowdsourcing to sort decks of playing cards.

Directions:

1) Divide into groups of 4, 5, or 6.

2) Grab your deck of playing cards and dump it into a bag, bucket, or even a loose pocket that you can make with the bottom of your shirt.

3) Shake the cards until they’re all mixed up.

4) Dump the cards out onto a table or desk where the whole group can see them.

5) Decide how to break up the task of sorting the deck so that every person has something to do and no one is doing too much.

6) Time yourself sorting the cards. Can you figure out a way to do it faster?

7) Repeat the game over and over until you think you have found the fastest way of crowdsourcing the card sorting activity.

Revision 140929.1a

This lesson shows us something important about algorithms. If you keep an algorithm

simple there are lots of ways to use it. If you want to make sure everyone ends up with

the same thing, then your algorithm needs to have a lot of detail.

This activity will show both options.

Directions:

1. Divide into groups of 3-5.

2. Each player should cut out their own set of tangrams.

2. Have one member of each group select an Algorithm Card without showing it to

anyone else.

3. The person with the Algorithm Card will try to explain the image to everyone else without letting them actually see it.

4. The other players will build their pictures off of the description given by the Card

Holder.

5. When the Card Holder is done, everyone will show their pictures and see if they all

ended up with the same image.

6. If everyone ends up with the same drawing, the Card Holder can show the card and

see if everyone matched the card.

7. If any of the pictures in the group are different from each other, have the Card

Holder try describing the image again, using more detail.

8. Choose a new Card Holder and a new Algorithm Card and repeat until everyone has

had a chance to describe an image.

SongwritingLesson Assessment

Revision 140610.1a

Look at the lyrics for the two songs below.

If it were your job to write this song as a computer program, what chunk of code would you turn into a function so that you could easily use it over and over again?

Circle the segments of each program that repeat most often. Is everything that you circled exactly the same? What parts are different? Those will need to be parameters.

Finish by filling out the Songwriting Worksheet with the song name, chorus, parameters, and a full version of the song that calls the chorus using the parameters that you chose.

Here are six images. Work with a partner to figure out how you can encode them into binary in such a way that another team can use the code to figure out what image you selected.

DIRECTIONS

1. Choose an image with your partner.2. Figure out what your binary alphabet is going to be.3. Encode your image using your new binary alphabet.4. Trade your encoding with another team and see if you can figure out which

picture they worked on.5. Choose a Level * Easy: Let the other team know what your encoding method was * Tough: Have the other team guess your encoding method.

The easy, fun, and active way

to learn computer science!

This book contains lesson plans from CS Fundamentals, Code.org's introduction to computer science for elementary school students and beyond. We have provided lesson plans, worksheets and classroom assessments for each of our courses. We suggest that you follow these lessons in the order presented, but feel free to adapt this plan as needed. You know your classroom best!

Course 1 - Intended for early-readers who have little or no previous computer science experience.

Course 2- Intended for readers who have little or no previous computer science experience.

Course 3 - Intended for readers who have done Course 2.

Course 4 - Intended for readers who have done Course 3.

Teachers are saying:

“I took a year of Pascal in college and learned nothing. I

have actually been doing this course with my students, and

I have been learning so much.”

“I love trying new things! Oh, I should also mention, I am a

57 year old grandmother!”

“After my daughter (who was never particularly interested

in math/coding) finished she said, ‘Maybe I could be a

computer scientist one day.’ "
