Recommended for: Grades 4-6
Where do you use code? Math, science, and.... well any subject! Students will learn coding concepts and then apply them creatively to visual art, poetry, and music. Students will then code an animated project in Scratch to demonstrate what they’ve learned!

Grade 4
- Computer Science: Students examine and apply design processes to meet needs.
- An algorithm is a sequence of instructions
- Artifacts are objects or products made through the process of design
- Plan and create an artifact to meet a need
- Writing: Students construct and organize text to share perspective and develop creative expression.
- Fine Arts: Art
- Fine Arts: Music
Grade 5
- Computer Science: Students apply design processes when creative artefacts that can be used by a human or machine to address a need.
- Design can be used to create algorithms and translate them into code
- Translate a given algorithm to code using a visual block based language
- A loop is a repetition of instructions used in an algorithm
- Writing: Students enhance the accuracy and artistry of expression through creative and critical-thinking processes.
- Fine Arts: Art
- Fine Arts: Music
Grade 6
- Computer Science: Students examine abstraction in relation to design and coding and describe impacts of technologies.
- The process of abstraction includes what to keep and what to ignore
- Apply abstraction during the design process
- Structures used in coding include sequences, conditionals, and loops
- Conditional structures are statements that tell computers to complete different actions based on different situations.
- Writing: Students create texts that reflect personal voice and style through creative and critical-thinking processes.
