My Project

The coding mice and activity boards will help my students learn about financial literacy and coding simultaneously. They will start the activity with a certain amount of money. As they go through the tunnels, they will need to pay a toll, but they will receive money for reaching certain tokens, like the cheese.

Students will learn to carefully program their robots to take paths that cost the least amount of money and gain them the most amount of money, which will promote critical thinking and application of both computer science and financial literacy skills.
