Using Scratch Programming to Explore Coordinates
Germia, Erell; Panorkou, Nicole
Mathematics Teacher: Learning and Teaching PK-12, v113 n4 p293-300 Apr 2020
We present a Scratch task we designed and implemented for teaching and learning coordinates in a dynamic and engaging way. We use the 5Es framework to describe the students' interactions with the task and offer suggestions of how other teachers may adopt it to successfully implement Scratch tasks.
