Getting From Point A to Point B by Coding!

Students in grades 1 and 2 were expected to write "code" for Cameron, our high school helper, to get from one area of the classroom to another by traveling on tiles only.  He wanted to get to a water bottle and students had to tell him to turn 90 degrees, walk forward one space, or students even made him hop!  By students writing the "code" for the direction he would take, they learned what it would take for computer programmers to create a game!  They embraced the challenge and became "coders".
