1 - Getting Started ~2 mins
Watch this little dance: clap, turn, jump. Can you copy it in the same order?
2 - Watch a Three-block Dance ~3 mins
Look at our character on the board. Watch me snap picture blocks in a line, then press the green flag.
Which picture do you think will happen first?
3 - We Choose the Dance Together ~2 mins
Call out three picture blocks for our class dance. We will snap them after the green flag and press the green flag together.
4 - Make Your Own Little Dance ~7 mins
With your partner, start your line of blocks with the green-flag picture, because that is the block that tells your character when to begin.
After it, snap two or three dance pictures in any order you like, and then press the green flag and watch your character dance the order you chose.
5 - Change Two Blocks Around ~5 mins
Slide two dance blocks so they change places. Keep the green-flag start first.
Press the green flag again. Which move is first now?
