Students explore computational thinking through engaging, themed scenarios. They program robots to harvest melons using light sensors, rescue a stranded friend with loops and conditionals, navigate darkness with sensors and LEDs, and locate a “thief” using randomization. Each challenge integrates coding, problem-solving, and collaboration while connecting to real-world concepts like agriculture, rescue protocols, and adaptability.
