What educators are saying

My team is self-contained, but on special days, we change classes. I plan a STEM science/SS activity for the entire team. This was a great activity for our Thanksgiving celebration.
This is a great activity that incorporates SO many skills - reading/following directions, computer skills, typing etc.

Description

Teach students how to follow and decompose algorithms with these Build a Turkey digital coding activities. 2 types of digital activities ask students to follow an algorithm to put a Turkey together and then look at a pre-built Turkey and type their own algorithm for it. Perfect for before Thanksgiving or as a follow up to a Disguise a Turkey activity!

Use these activities as a lesson on understanding what an algorithm is, how to write one, follow one, and decompose one. I even included printable posters and vocabulary cards.
