Standard Lessons
6-8.DI.1
Decompose (i.e., break down) problems into smaller, more manageable subsets by applying the algorithmic problem solving steps to make the possible solutions easier to follow, test, and debug.
  1. 1.1 Introduction to Karel
  2. 1.2 Karel's World

  1. 3.8 Mouse Data
  2. 3.9 Keyboard Data
6-8.DI.3
Describe that data can be represented in multiple encoding schemes such as binary, RGB values (e.g., red, green, and blue intensity), and hexadecimal codes.
  1. 3.2 Color
6-8.DI.4
Create visuals such as flowcharts, diagrams, and pseudocode to represent complex problems as algorithms.
