Dash macht einen Road Trip

Teilen Sie den Beitrag:

Teachers and families, meet Dash’s next adventure: the Road Trip packet! This collection of 3 challenge cards, takes kids on a road trip so they can practice coding, computational thinking and creativity with Dash. 

These challenge cards are geared toward more advanced coders, teaching them how to use Variables to define distances. Less advanced coders can use blocks that simply define the value rather than use a Variable to define the value.

In addition to using the cards themselves, parents or teachers could extend the activities in the following ways:

  • Family Coding Night: Turn the packet into a living road trip—set up “pit stops” in different rooms, each with a new Dash challenge.

  • Real-World Math Practice: On your next car ride, compare your family’s mileage or travel time to the estimates students made, fostering real-life number sense.

  • Creative Storytelling: Encourage kids to write and illustrate their own “Dash Road Trip” comic strip or travel story, then program Dash to act out key scenes.

  • Screen-Free Extension: Ask your child to do “Roadside Attraction Research” to investigate real landmarks; use a a writing prompt that requires kids to practice persuasive language skills while they write an argument about why they should visit a specific attraction.
