Lesson 5

Welcome to Coding With Lily! I'm so glad you are here!

In this lesson, we are going to:

  • learn about functions in Computer Science
  • engage in an unplugged activity
  • make a function in
  • hear about Women in Computer Science

  • Activities

    Start with the first activity and then the next activity until you finish. Some videos are good for watching and others are good for following along. Some activities may have you follow along with a paper and pencil for unplugged activities and others will have you coding in Scratch. Remember you can pause or watch these videos as many times as you want.

    Activity Description
    5.0 Functions

    Let's learn about functions.

    5.1 Unplugged Activity

    Let's make a Fortune Teller! You'll need a sheet of paper, scissors, and a pen or something to write with.

    5.2 Functions in Scratch

    Let's see how we can write our own functions in Scratch.

    5.3 Project Update

    Check out how Lily adds a function to her project. While you're watching, think about how you might be able to use a function in your project.

    5.4 Women in Computer Science

    Here is a special interview with Karlie Verkest and how she found Computer Science.
