Final Unit (PDF) Implementing Common Core Standards (PDF)
Synopsis
This unit will explore various methods in which a computer program can be written to create an algorithm to play Tic-Tac-Toe successfully. A simple game was chosen to make the processes easier to comprehend for elementary students. Some activities have students actually programming using a tool created for children, while others replicate the coding concepts without actually programming a computer.
