Debug the Elf! | Christmas Algorithm & Sequencing Activity for Grades 2–4
There's a bug in the workshop — and it's not the kind you can squash with your boot. Eight hardworking elves have each written an algorithm for their holiday job. The only problem? Every single one of them scrambled the steps. Chip the Baker Elf wants to put cookies in the oven before mixing the dough. Dash the Delivery Elf is ready to deliver gifts before loading the sleigh. And Luma the Candle Keeper Elf has somehow decided to blow out the candle before lighting the wick. Students become junio

CS without Computers Lesson 1: What is an Algorithm Plus Worksheet and Examples
This lesson introduces students to algorithms—step-by-step instructions used to complete tasks—through unplugged activities that build computational thinking skills. Students start with a warm-up, analyzing flawed instructions to understand the importance of clarity. Then, they write and test algorithms for everyday tasks like making a sandwich, tying a shoelace, or drawing a shape. Through peer feedback, they debug and refine their instructions, learning how precision impacts execution, ju

CS without Computer Lesson 2: Human Robot Algorithms
This lesson engages students in computational thinking by having them write and test algorithms through a hands-on "Human Robot" challenge. Students create step-by-step instructions for a partner acting as a robot, who follows the algorithm exactly as written—revealing flaws in clarity and precision. Through debugging and refining their instructions, students experience how computers execute commands without assumptions, highlighting the importance of well-structured algorithms. A supporting
