SC.68.CS-CS.2.2 (Discontinued after 2024-2025)

Students will use their endangered species research from Lesson 1 for a flowchart to plan a Scratch animation. The animation will educate citizens about a specific Florida endangered species and how it can be protected. This is lesson 2 of a 3-lesson unit integrating Civics with Computer Science and Coding.

Type: Lesson Plan

This is the final lesson of a 3-lesson unit integrating Civics with Computer Science. Students will create an animation in Scratch to raise awareness of an endangered species in Florida. Research from Lesson 1 and a flowchart plan from Lesson 2 will be applied.

Type: Lesson Plan

Lesson 1 of a mini-unit integrating Civics with Computer Science. Students identify the differences between national and Florida state laws regulating endangered species. Students select a specific Florida endangered species, research threats, population changes, and relevant local laws protecting it. The third lesson produces a Scratch animation related to the chosen species.

This is lesson 3 of 3 in the Goldilocks’ Café Just Right unit. This lesson focuses on systematic investigation on getting a cup of coffee to be the “just right” temperature and turbidity level. Students will use both the temperature probe and turbidity sensor and code using ScratchX during their investigation.

This lesson shows how data can be represented by computers, in relation to everyday activities we may not be aware that we use computer. It gives an overview of graphing data by creating a histogram based on population data. Using the data collected, students will get a chance to hand write code to show what structure is needed for computers to collect, analyze and distribute such data. This lesson is lesson 1 of the Data Set and Deviation Statistics Unit and bridges statistical concepts of data collection, graphing and analysis with programming a computer using coding language while reinforcing foundational algebraic skills.

This lesson introduces the water cycle to enhance the understanding of how bodies of water and landforms interact to form a complex system. This lesson provides students the opportunity to see how systems can be found in many different forms from science to computers. This lesson will also introduce pseudocode as another form of a procedure. This is lesson 3 of 4 in the Florida Landform and Water Unit.

Type: Lesson Plan

This lesson introduces students to the idea of recursive division and its application to radioactive dating with a worksheet and Scratch programming. This is the final lesson in the Radioactive Dating Unit.
