Maui and the Sun


Maui and the sun- lesson plan

Introducing algorithm to the Junior school was done through an unplugged lesson.  After reading the legend we went outside and using masks for roleplay we retraced the steps Maui took to reach the sun, picking up flax on the way.
Using whiteboards they took turns at been the robot and the programmer.  We worked together to debug our errors if we didn't make it to the sun.
