Programming: teaching a computer or electronic device to behave in a certain way. You do this through a special language called Coding.
Sequencing: doing something in a particular order, similar to a recipe. In Coding, a sequence is essential for success.
Sequencing is doing something in a particular order, kind of like a recipe. Can you imagine getting dressed in the wrong order? In coding, sequencing is the order that code runs, from top to bottom.
Remember, programming is teaching a computer or electronic device to behave in a certain way. For example, our Bee-Bots go forward one time for each time you press the front arrow.
We teach these computers with something called code. The code language we use is called Blockly, which you will hear me talk about a lot in the coming years. Today, we will be learning how to sequence code in a fun, online environment called Code.org. Like many things in life, you will be using this to improve your problem solving and critical thinking skills.

An example of Blockly code
Looping with Repeat Blocks in Blockly is one of the simplest ways to make your program do something multiple times without rewriting the same code over and over. Any piece of code placed inside a Repeat Block makes the action repeat over and over again until the cycle is complete.
Debugging in Blockly means finding and fixing mistakes (bugs) in your block-based program so it works the way you expect. This can be done by observing the output (actions) as the code executes (runs) to find the error.
An example of a Repeat Block. In this example, the avatar will move west 3 times.
I can define programming, code, and sequencing.
I can create a sequence of code to perform an action.
Success Criteria
An Example of a Sequence. The bird will move West, then South twice.
