Block coding snaps pieces together. A hat block starts it, and blocks inside a C repeat.
Block coding snaps pieces together. Each block is a puzzle piece with a job, such as move, turn or repeat.
A block snaps in only where its shape fits, so there are no typos.
Every stack starts with a hat block, and blocks run from top to bottom, in order.
A C-shaped block hugs other blocks, and whatever sits inside the C gets repeated.
These are some of the questions on the sets. The printable sheets have more and an answer key.
The hat block. The hat block says when the program begins.
5. Whatever is inside the C repeats.
Once. A block outside the C runs once.
Top to bottom. Blocks run in order, one after another.
4. 2 blocks, 2 times: 2 x 2 = 4.
Write each action on its own sticky note, like step forward, turn round or clap, and stick them in a column, top to bottom. Draw a big C around the ones that should repeat and write how many times. Ask a grown-up to be the robot and follow your blocks exactly, then spot any bugs together.
Do the Mission: write each action on its own sticky note, stick them in a column, and draw a big C around the ones that repeat. Be the robot and follow the notes exactly, then spot any bugs together.
