G3S1 — Block Builders

Goal: Students make the jump to app-based programming using EdBlocks. They consolidate barcode knowledge quickly (accessible to new students) and spend the bulk of the class learning to drive precisely, turn, and navigate a maze.

Who’s in the room: Mix of returning students (from Class 2 or not), some brand new to grade 3. Session 1 is designed as a full reset.

Programming level: Level 0 → Level 2 → Level 3 (EdBlocks Activities 1–12)

Key activities: EdBlocks environment, drive + turn programming, maze engineering challenge
