This packet comes with 5 activities that have students use their critical thinking skills and map skills to code. The activities include: 1. Writing code to a location. 2. Reading code to see each person's destination. 3. Reading a To-Do list to create a route to code and then use coding to complete actions while on the road. Can't get enough of un-plugged coding?

Reading and Writing Code while Using a Map

Created by

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! Want more coding activities? Writing Code Using Map Skills

This bundle includes three coding products that are offered in my store. I use coding with my students during Social Studies time (and for early finishers) because they are using their map skills to understand a key and read a compass and also using critical thinking skills.

Coding is such a fun way to use problem solving and critical thinking! These 3 activities have the students read a map and navigate themselves to different locations. They will draw the rectangles from the tool box in the work space area to navigate themselves on a field trip. This is a great introduction to coding and these activities also focus on map skills!

Experience

I am starting my 15th year as an educator, however I have worked with children for 3 years in Montessori before this, as well. Currently, I teach 1st and 2nd grade ELA and SS. I have taught Health/Tech to K-5, 1st and 3rd grade self contained and also 4th grade self contained. I have also taught 7th and 8th grade Reading/Literature.

Teaching style

Our classroom, the students and mine, is a learner centered area where we focus on becoming sound problem solvers thorough the use of higher level questions, activities, and also by having growth mindsets. We may not know the answer or "stink at reading", but we just do not know the answer YET and stinking at reading is a temporary, easy fix with a positive growth mindset.

Awards & shining teacher moments

My published short stories and poetry can be found in: Perspectives Literary Magazine (2000) Inkling Literary Magazine (2005) Volt Literary Magazine (2011)

My own education history

I graduated Cum Laude with a Bachelor's Degree in English with a concentration in Creative Writing from the University of Houston in 2010. I have a minor in History.

Additional biographical information

Being a teacher has its definite perks, such as giving us this invitation to join our students on their journey through understanding. I could not imagine holding another position, as my career, that would carry as much meaning. I am a mom to a kind and creative 11 year old person. :) I love working with and educating kiddos and learning from them too!
