Nevada Standards Aligned: Beta - CSF Course A
Developed specifically for Nevada standards alignment. This course offers a computer science curriculum for beginning readers in kindergarten. Students will learn to program using commands with sequencing and loops. The lessons featured in this course also teach students to meaningfully collaborate with others, investigate different problem-solving techniques, persist in the face of challenging tasks, and learn about internet safety.

The power of the internet allows students to experience and visit places they might not be able to see in person. But, just like traveling in the real world, it's important to be safe when traveling online. On this virtual field trip, kids can practice staying safe on online adventures.
This skill-building lesson will give students an idea of what to expect when they head to the computer lab. It begins with a brief discussion introducing them to computer lab manners, then they will progress into using a computer to complete online puzzles.
This context-setting lesson brings together teams with a simple task: get the "flurb" to the fruit. Students will practice writing precise instructions as they work to translate instructions into the symbols provided.
In this skill-building lesson, students will develop sequential algorithms to move a squirrel character from one side of a maze to the acorn at the other side. To do this they will stack code blocks together in a linear sequence.
In this skill-building lesson, students will continue to develop sequential algorithms.
In this skill-building lesson, students will use their newfound programming skills in more complicated ways to navigate a tricky course with BB-8.
This context-setting lesson revisits Happy Maps. This time, students will use loops to solve bigger, longer puzzles with their code.
In this skill-building lesson, students will practice loops in programming puzzles where the goal is to help the squirrel reach the acorn.
In this skill-building lesson, students continue learning the concept of loops. Here, students use loops to collect treasure in open cave spaces.
In this exploratory lesson, students empathize with several fictional smartphone users to help them find the “right app” that addresses their needs.
