Planting a Tree Differentiated Algorithm: Earth Day Unplugged Computer Science Activity

• Introducing young students to computer science concepts is more important than ever! Many states are adopting technology standards that include creating algorithms. Give your students a head start and use this easy, no-prep activity to introduce them to algorithms.
• Includes 4 differentiated versions of the Earth Day planting a tree algorithm.
• Students cut out the pictures and paste them in the correct order. Includes a write and draw version of the algorithm to give students an extra challenge. Students can compare their written algorithms to see what their peers came up with.
• Students of all levels will be able to participate in this foundational computer science coding activity that focuses on sequencing to create an algorithm.
• This is a great print and go activity for Earth Day, Arbor Day, STEM integration or just a fresh spring activity that incorporates important foundational computer science concepts.

Earth Day Unplugged Coding: Taking Care of Our Environment Conditional Loops Activities:

• If you've already introduced your students to algorithms (check out these differentiated algorithm activities), this conditional loops activity is the perfect next step!
• This Earth Day Taking Care of Our Environment theme contains activities focused on picking up trash, recycling, and planting trees.
• Students will identify and create a simple algorithm and repeat it until the full task has been completed. This is a great way to introduce loops.
• No prep is required. Simply print and get started with this activity. This is the perfect small group or independent practice activity to include after a whole group lesson on algorithms and loops.

Unplugged Coding: Earth Day Code Block Mazes:

• Color and black & white versions of each maze.
• Fun Earth Day themed mazes for easy STEM integration.
• Recycling, Cleaning up Trash, and Planting mazes
• Each maze comes with an algorithm recording sheet.
• This is a perfect way to incorporate a foundational computer science concept on Earth Day or throughout the whole month of April.
• No prep necessary! Simply print and use the black and white version of the maze or laminate and re-use the colored version during center time, morning seat work, or any other time you want to give students a skill building activity that they see as a game!
