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
