Give a tiny robot clear instructions
A good instruction tells what, where and in what order.
Take your time. Speak, draw or write your answers.
Here is what is happening.
An instruction sequence puts actions in order. On a paper grid, “move right, then up” is different from “move right twice”. A partner cannot follow an unstated idea in your head. Use a clear starting point and check what each instruction means.
Pause. Make the idea your own.
Explain one idea to a partner, draw it or write it in your own words. Which part is an observation, an example or a question?
You can use a home language. No need to share personal experiences or finish everything in one sitting.Your little investigation
What you need
Paper and a pencil, or a partner to talk with. Drawing and speaking are welcome.
Draw a three-by-three grid and mark a start in the bottom-left corner.
Point one space right, then one space up.
Swap roles and test a new two-step route without leaving the grid.
What must a partner know before following the route?
