Code Critters

Success Zone / Cornerstone -
2025 Fall

Let’s meet INDI! This class is entry level robot that is designed to introduce early learners to the fundamentals of computational thinking, STEAM, and computer science principles. INDI encourages open ended, imaginative play-based learning with real-life scenarios as leaners build custom mazes, solve puzzles, and drive. As students learn pattern recognition, creating and using algorithms, decomposition, and understanding abstractions they will become better thinkers and problem solvers.

Week Skills Lesson/Activity
1 Introduction to Indi Students will review how to use color tiles to program Indi's movements. They will experiment with different tile combinations to navigate simple mazes.
2 Intro to Indi Commands & Colors Indi the Car and the Magical Rainbow
3 Indi Car Adventures Create a simple path following directions.
4 Indi Car and his Reventure Explore turns and directions.
5 Indi Car at the Races Obstacle course transition challenge.
6 Mini City Race time! Directions will be provided for Mini City.
7 Identifying Patterns Introducing loops and identifying patterns and sequences.
8 Looping Patterns Map adventures looping patterns.
