Never Struggle Planning Activities Again
Easy to use activity booklets for your troop meeting.Never Struggle Planning Activities Again
Easy to use activity booklets for your troop meeting.This activity booklet was designed to fulfill the requirements for the Junior Programming Robots Badge or can be used by frontier girl leaders to earn similar badges. Great for teachers and home schooled kids as well.
This booklet has tons of hands-on activities and puzzles that teach girls how robots work—completely unplugged with no computers, Wi-Fi, or expensive kits required. These activities include exploring robot components, creating their own algorithms, mastering conditional logic, and debugging broken code.
Activities Include:
Crack the Bot Code (Discover How Robots Work): Girls explore the core parts of a robot by playing a high-energy "Human Robot Assembly Relay," drawing and labeling their own "Build-a-Bot Anatomy Blueprint," or hunting down automated devices in an "Everyday Robot & Sensor Scavenger Hunt."
Write the Master Recipe (Algorithms & Sequences): Girls master step-by-step coding instructions by navigating a blindfolded classmate through a "Human Robot Grid Maze," stringing a "Binary & Color Code Bracelet Sequence," or solving a delivery map challenge on the "Unplugged Code Grid & Navigation Challenge."
Streamline Your Steps (Repeat Loops & Efficiency): Girls discover how repeat loops save code space and speed up tasks by racing in a "Loop Dance Party Relay," designing pixel art patterns in a "Loop Pattern Coding Craft," or simulating an automated factory line in the "Factory Automation Loop Line."
Set the Rules of the Road (If/Then Conditionals & Safety): Girls learn conditional programming logic and sensor responses by playing a fast-paced "Conditional Freeze Dance" game, building a visual "Smart Tech Conditional Flowchart," or acting as certified "Robot Safety Inspectors" to program emergency overrides.
Fix the Glitches & Share (Debugging & Code Review): Girls practice locating errors and collaborating like real software engineers by racing in a "Human Bug Relay," tracing broken paths in a "Paper Maze Debugging Lab," or giving constructive "Star & Wish" feedback in a "Peer Code Review & Feedback Session."
