Lesson plans or instructional activities/strategies will be shared to integrate Computational Thinking into the core subject areas of Math, Science and English Language Arts. The Computational Thinking curriculum incorporates the four elements of computational thinking (decomposition, pattern recognition, abstraction, and algorithm design) in a project-based approach to learning within core subject areas. In each subject-area module, students use computational thinking and the engineering design process to master grade level standards. The modules also provide guidance to teachers about how to embed computational thinking vocabulary into everyday learning experiences.
