Unit Pre-programming

Year level: F-2 Topic: Sequences Time: 7 hours

At the F–2 level, where learning at the pre-programming stage is the expectation, there is no requirement to learn a particular programming language. However, students do learn some basic computational skills such as working out steps and decisions required to solve simple problems. For example, they can instruct a robotic toy to move in a certain direction. The focus at this level is on designing a sequence of steps. Some students may be ready to learn to use a simple visual programming language specifically designed for young children. An app that enables the user to drag and drop programming blocks can be used to create some simple animations.
