By Howlin' Husky Math Games
With the start of a new school year, do you want to try something different? Do you have an extra day when you'd love to take the entire class on an adventure of fun and excitement? Maybe you have a group of lightning-fast learners who breeze through assignments in no time. Giving them more of the same problems they've already mastered would be a wasted opportunity. So why not shake things up? How about introducing them to a thrilling world of discovery, with absolutely NO EXTRA WORK for you?
Programming!
Introducing "Learn to Program Scratch" task cards! (This bundle contains ALL THREE LEVELS of the series) These cards bring to life Scratch, a visually captivating computer programming language created by none other than MIT. Every student should have a taste of programming, and as math teachers, we hold the key to open this amazing door. Computer programming is the ultimate fusion of math and logic, and brace yourself... it's also fun!
Prepare to witness a spark of interest in your students! For many of them, the vast world of coding remains an enigma, with no clue where to begin. And let's face it, not all schools offer a comprehensive computer science curriculum. But fear not! These bundled task cards act as a stepping stone, paving the way for their journey into the realms of Java, Python, JavaScript, C#, and more!
Hold on tight, because here's what's packed inside this treasure trove:
- This bundle contains ALL THREE LEVELS of my task cards- Starting with the basics of Scratch and ending with simple game making with Scratch
Level 1: (16 cards) Introduction to block coding. Simple so any student
can achieve a level of success.
Level 2: (16 cards) Multiple stepped tasks with Scratch. This level leads
into concepts that are used in level 3.
Level 3: (16 cards) Four games to create, each with 4 task cards.
Rock, Paper, Scissors
Dodge Ball
Jumping Game
Whack-A-Mole
- Each card boasts a different level of challenge: N00b, Coder, Hacker! Differentiated so everyone can succeed!
- Need a guiding light? We've got you covered with a full answer key.
- Flexibility at its finest! These cards can be done in any order, allowing you to print out one or two sets, laminate them for extra durability, and share them with multiple students!
- The cards are color-coded, following the Scratch theme. And hey, we understand if color printing isn't an option, so we've also labeled them for your convenience.
- Dive into the experience headfirst with an introduction video and a written overview of Scratch vocabulary. We're here to ensure you and your students have the smoothest journey possible!
*** Pro tip: Printing the cards on thicker paper (cardstock) and laminating them not only elevates their durability but ensures they withstand the test of time, unleashing countless moments of wonder and discovery!
