What students do

Eight places need a robot's help. Students build a program from Move forward and Turn blocks, press Run and watch the robot follow it one block at a time.

What it adds to the lesson

The paper version of First Moves has students trace four rooms with a finger. Here the robot runs the program block by block, so students see the exact block that went wrong.
