Contributed by Kelly Vaughan, November 11, 2013
6th Grade Math lesson on the coordinate plane; introduces very basic Scratch programming.
  • Original Author: Kelly Vaughan
  • Education Level: Middle School
  • Content Types: Activity, Handout, Lesson Plan
  • Curricular Areas: Computer Science, Mathematics, Technology
  • Keywords: N/A
The first in a series of lesson plans introducing programming while aligning to the Common Core State Standards. I'm hoping that more teachers will participate in Hour of Code if the content is material they have to teach anyway. In this lesson, students use the pen and motion blocks to draw shapes on the coordinate plane.

 Super - I plan to use this next week with our match teacher!  I have been using scratch for years in the computer lab but I can't get teachers to buy in - all I had to do is show them CCSS and the teachers start to listen!
Thanks
