๐Ÿ  You're helping at home and you use creating sequential plans to solve a problem.

๐ŸŽฏ Your mission

Act it out, then reflect.

โšก The twist

What is the one thing that must go right?

What You'll Learn

๐Ÿง  Write instructions for making a sandwich that a ROBOT could follow. You'll realize how specific you need to be! 'Put stuff on bread' is bad instructions. Here's how to do it: 1. Look carefully at the problem. What do you see? 2. Think about what you already know. Does this remind you of something? 3. Try an answer! It's totally okay to be wrong โ€” that's how we learn. 4. Check: did it work? If not, try something else! You're building your thinking muscles. The more you practice, the stronger they get!
