Snowflake Algorithm Lesson Pack: Unplugged Coding & Debugging Activity
Tired of abstract programming lessons that leave students confused about what an "algorithm" actually is? Turn coding concepts tangible with a paper-snowflake unplugged activity that makes algorithms, precision, iteration, and debugging visible and memorable. You know the struggle: students can recite definitions but still can't write instructions someone else can follow. This resource fixes that by putting students in the role of both designer and computer — they must write exact, repeatable

Cup Stacking Algorithms | Paperless Coding | Algorithms & Debugging | STEM
Cup Stacking Algorithms – Intro to Coding ActivityThis is a hands-on, unplugged activity I use to introduce my coding unit. Students practice writing clear, step-by-step directions (algorithms) by guiding a partner to build a cup stack design. How it works: Students work in pairs. One student is the "programmer" and completes the worksheet by writing an algorithm using the provided symbols. The other student is the "robot "and works on a separate independent task while waiting. ( I used a fre
