P5-Y 4/26 Big Idea 3 Cards
Big Idea 3 taught through Blackjack simulation games
Big Idea 3 With Cards
The main focus of our lesson is to teach the various code concepts of Big Idea 3 based on a blackjack simulation game.
Subtopics
- Reviewing types of variables
- Reviewing algorithms and procedures
- Iteration
- Selection
- The purpose of simulations and their possible benefits
- Our simulation will include an SQLite table
Lesson Plans
- We will use "fill in the blanks" as lesson interactions
- We will have code segments for them to base their notes on
Plans for hacks
- At the moment, we plan on incorporating some sort of student-made simulation. It doesn't have to be complicated.
Grading
- To be determined. (We don't know exactly what we'll be asking them to do quite yet. The lessons are still being outlined.)
