Looking for a project to use in an AP® Computer Science class? Engage learners with a simple solitaire game called Elevens. Through these activities, learners break down the task and write the code for a game. Sign in to your College...

Training for battle is really a set of sequences, just like computer science. Scholars program a code that guides Diana from Wonder Woman through a path that avoids her enemies. They learn about how sequences play a role in computer...

Ahoy there! A fun computer science lesson challenges pupils to write a program that creates an ocean wave. They then develop stories to accompany their projects. All of this takes place within the Scratch coding program.

Show your teacher you care. Young scholars use the Blockly programming language to create a card for their teachers. Using variables, encapsulation, objects, and sequences helps advance their computer science knowledge at the same time.

No there's no need to piece together computer science resources. A fun Made with Code project challenges scholars to develop a collage with a Rookie theme using computer code. They learn about encapsulation, objects, and properties in...

It's my belief that all learners should have equal access to computer science projects! Young computer scientists learn about variables, encapsulation, sequences, and objects in block-based coding. They create a collage by first...

Make Mary Poppins proud. Young computer scientists use block-based coding to create snowflake animations with a Mary Poppins theme. They learn how to apply sequences, actions, and loops in computer science.

High schoolers explore a computer-aided design program. Students chart out roller coaster design, computer graphics and architecture. High schoolers focus on understanding the connections between mathematics, science, technology and...

What's in a name? Pupils use the Scratch code blocks to animate letters in a name. They learn about events, sequencing, and loops in computer science by taking part in the project.

Strut your stuff, just on a computer and not on a fashion runway. Scholars program a fashion show animation using block-based computer coding. They learn how to apply different code blocks in writing their programs.

Devote an hour to computer coding ... it's time well spent! The activity has young computer scientists write code to solve puzzles in the Minecraft game. They learn how to apply block codes and repeat loops.

What does a future as a computer scientist look like? Pupils learn about loops in computer coding by writing a story about the future. They include the repeat until and wait blocks in the Scratch program to incorporate these loops.

Face your computer coding fears. Young computer scientists take part in a computer programming project using block-based coding. They create a personal emoji consisting of a face, eyes, mouth, and accessories that conveys a character's...

Become talented in computer science. After interviewing a computer science guru, pupils work on individual projects related to a virtual music talent show. They learn how to use different code blocks in the Scratch programming language,...

Sometimes pictures could use a little help. Scholars add filters, frames, stamps, and text to a background photograph. They learn to use variables, encapsulation, sequences, and objects as they use the Blockly programming language.

Here's an activity sure to be music to your ears. Pupils create a music composition using block-based computer coding. They add different sound rings, and then adjust the number and speed of sounds to create their composition pieces.

Students reinforce science concepts learned throughout the year using Movie Maker. Eighth grade students work with fourth grade students in which they create a movie project about a science topic after completing a graphic organizer.

Art isn't the first thing that comes to mind when thinking about computer science. The first installment of an eight-part Google CS Art unit introduces the series and highlights class procedures. Pupils view videos that show how to use...

Greetings from your computer science class! The culminating activity in the eight-part Google CS Art unit has scholars create digital cards. The purpose of the cards is to show their families what they now know about programming.

Sometimes it's okay to text in school. Young computer scientists work in the Scratch program to write a text message conversation among friends. They use different sprites within the program to represent each side of the conversation to...

If you use the resource, then pupils will understand conditional block instructions. In the first lab of a six-part unit, pupils learn how to use conditional statements (if/then) in block instructions for computer programming. They apply...
