Thanksgiving Reflection and Scale Factor Drawing
Christmas Reflection and Scale Factor Drawing
I have made this Thanksgiving themed resource to help begin meet the needs of our 21st Century learners. The skills they will need will involve a capability of working in a digital environment.
This activity focusses on coding. However it can equally be seen as a sequencing activity, a problem solving activity or a positional maths activity.
This is an introductory activity to using coding. It doesn’t require the use of a device or access to the internet. Though you may like to show students the actual Scratch Jr app as well.
The success of these tasks is best achieved with plenty of prior discussion and modelling.
The challenge with these activities is working with anticlockwise and clockwise turns
This resource comes with;
Four worksheets of simple coding. The four increase in challenge.
Answers for each worksheet
This is a resource to introduce young students to the world of coding.
Coding is an essential skill in the digital curriculum for 21st Century learners.
Coding is the ability to create instructions that allow a set of actions to be carried out.
This resource gives an opportunity to expose early elementary students to the world of coding with the format used in the user friendly coding app Scratch Jr.
The resource doesn’t require a device or access to the internet. Students can cut and past the missing pieces of code into a blank box sequence to achieve the desired outcome on the worksheet.
There are two ways this resource can be used;
As a cut and paste worksheet. There are 4 different coding worksheets, with answers.
As a reusable independent learning center activity. There are 4 activity cards and a set of ‘coding blocks’ to cut out and laminate. These can all be kept in a tray or container and the students can then take the activity and work with it.
This resource comes with;
Four worksheets of simple coding. The four increase in challenge.
Three bonus worksheets
Answers for each worksheet
The worksheets as reusable instruction cards

This resource has 7 Winter themed images (Woollen hat, Mitten, Scarf, Ice Skates, Cup of Cocoa, Tobogganing scene, Fireplace) to put together and create the agamograph. This resource has all the combination pairs (21).
There are two levels of challenge;

I have also included blank templates for students to create their own two images to combine.
This resource also has a short stop motion video (the video preview) demonstrating the construction of the agamograph. Note: my video-making is still in its infancy and while the quality is not blockbuster material, it does show how the art is made.
