    (Kiki Prottsman - Thinkersmith)
    In graph paper programming, we help explain
  • 0:11 - 0:15
    how coding works by trying to help people
  • 0:15 - 0:21
    recreate drawings using only arrows and scribbles.
  • 0:21 - 0:25
    One person, is given a small drawing on graph paper
  • 0:25 - 0:30
    and they need to go through using only specific arrows
  • 0:30 - 0:34
    and try to describe how to recreate that drawing.
  • 0:34 - 0:39
    In this activity, the only symbols you can use are these:
  • 0:39 - 0:41
    move one square forward,
  • 0:41 - 0:43
    one square backward,
  • 0:43 - 0:45
    move one square up,
  • 0:45 - 0:47
    move one square down,
  • 0:47 - 0:50
    change to next color and
  • 0:50 - 0:52
    fill in your square with color.
  • 0:52 - 0:58
    Once we have that coded up, we can hand it off to another person
  • 0:58 - 1:01
    who can read the code and try and recreate picture.
