CODING — LEVEL A

Step-by-Step Thinking: Daily Life Coding. Build foundations for algorithmic thinking with everyday routines. Emphasize sequence (what comes first/next/last), left-to-right ordering, and clear gestures. Every lesson includes adult prompts, observation notes, and printable images.

About Level A

Adult + Child co-learning

The adult guides questions and models gestures; the child responds and practices. Sessions are short (8–12 minutes).

Core skills

Sequencing, cause–effect, and identifying the start and end of a routine. Use simple arrows and numbers.

Materials

Printable image cards, arrows, and a one-page observation checklist. Household objects can substitute when printing isn’t available.

Guidance for adults

Prompts to use

“What do we do first?” · “Then what?” · “Show me with your hands.” · “Where does it start?”

Observe & note

Check if the child can identify the first step, maintain left-to-right order, and explain a sequence in 2–3 sentences.

No-print option

Use household objects (spoon, cup, towel) to mimic the sequence if printing isn’t possible.
