UNITS - 8 (36 lessons)

• Optional Review

  This module reviews foundational CodeHopJr concepts including navigating the interface, events, repeat and forever loops, and message events to prepare students for new content.

• Getting Started

  This module explores how computer hardware and software work together, reinforces responsible technology use, and applies computational thinking to school day routines.

• Sequences and Events

  This module builds sequence and event skills through debugging, grid-based movement, algorithm design, and data storage concepts, applied in an interactive tap-a-mole game.

• Message Events

  This module teaches message events and pages to control program flow and model cycles, introduces variables for score-keeping, and explains how computer networks share information.

• Loops

  This module extends loop skills through pattern-following, debugging, timer-building, story animation, and applying the design process to solve a real-world problem with loops.

• Culmination Projects

  This culminating module reviews coding blocks and combines events, loops, messages, sequences, and pages to build racing, moving-target, and adventure games.

• Digital Literacy

  This module covers digital literacy skills including password safety, developing investigative questions and visualizing survey data, and researching to answer questions.

• Preparing for Next Year

  This module prepares students for next-level programming by introducing conditionals through unplugged card games and transitioning from CodeHopJr to the CodeHop block-based editor.
