2 OBJECTIVES Students will: Name various activities that make up their day Decompose large activities into a series of smaller events Arrange sequential events into their logical order

5 THINGS WE DO EVERY DAY What did you do to get ready for school this morning? Write answers on the board. Put them in some kind of logical order. If possible, put numbers next to responses to indicate the order that they happen. Point out places where order matters and places where it doesn't. https://drmaryblog.wordpress.com/2008/10/03/w eight-control-tip-brush-your-teeth-after-eating/

6 EXAMPLES Things we do that are a sequence of steps, one after the other: Eating breakfast, Brushing teeth, Planting a flower Computers need algorithms and programs to show them how to do even simple things that we can do without thinking about them. It can be challenging to describe something that comes naturally in enough detail for a computer to replicate. Let's try doing this with a new and fun activity, like playing the Dice Race Game!

7 DICE RACE DIRECTIONS

8 EXAMPLE Match the steps in the Dice Race game to the order that they should appear in the algorithm.
