Junior high students at Scales Mound School were very excited to hear about Mrs. Davis’ sandwich making ro- bot. And after having participated in last year’s Hour of Code, they felt prepared to write code and program the robot to make them a sandwich. Writing this special “code” helped students to understand that computer code is essentially just a set of very detailed, step-by-step instructions on how to accom- plish a task. So students wrote a code that would allow a robot, which could make no assumptions and only do exactly as it was in- structed, to make them a sandwich. When they were done writing the code, they were even more excited to assume the role of the robot, and see how well their code ran. Standing in front of their peers, Mrs. Davis read the first instruc- tion, “Take two pieces of bread out of the bag.” Students jumped into action when their teacher quickly challenged them. “What are you doing? I didn’t tell you to open the bag! The instructions were to take two pieces of bread out of the bag.” Suddenly, realization struck the faces of the sixth graders as they began to calculate just how many steps they may have forgot- ten.
