5-5c Computational Thinking

Students break problems into component parts, extract key information, and develop descriptive models to understand complex systems or facilitate problem-solving.
Picture
I can break problems into parts.

4 I can teach how to break problems into parts.
3 Without help, I can break problems into parts.
2 With a little help, I can break problems into parts.

Create a google spreadsheet to price out everything you need to plan a camping trip for this summer! The first 2 items on your spread sheet should be:
1) tent
2) sleeping bag
3) any other camping supplies you have time to look for

Use the sum function to total up the price column of your spreadsheet.
