Pirate Coding Unplugged

What is an algorithm?

Your task:

Create an algorithm for your partner to follow. Can you get the pirate to the 'X marks the spot' so he can find the treasure? The pirate can only move one square per directional card, however when a 'right turn' or 'left turn' card is used he remains on the spot and turns in the direction indicated by the card.
