Description

These 3 activities focus on writing code using paper and pencil. Coding is a great critical thinking activity because the students have to position themselves on the map and move by holding their place in their mind. These activities can be extended to procedural writing activities. Write code and then explain your steps. "First, I left the zoo and turned East. Then, I went straight through 2 intersections..." etc.

I hope you enjoy!

I can not even follow the location and movement instructions in this resource and I have been teaching for 25 years. I have shown it to a few other teachers and the directions make no sense. I am glad it was not expensive because it is a total waste of money. Useless. I am unable to use with my students.
