During a six-week session, students learn about sequence, loops, debugging, conditionals, events, and functions (Course 3). In each class, students work collaboratively on an “unplugged” activity, without the use of devices, and then complete a self-guided tutorial using blockly on the code.org site for that day’s topic.

Kids have to direct a fuzz ball along a path using arrows as commands. The idea is the alien fuzz balls don’t know anything and won’t do anything until given very specific commands. Students are also given the opportunity to correct erroneous code to make the fuzz ball correctly move.
