Debugging and Patterns
Computational Thinking Foundations — Finding bugs and recognizing patterns
📝 Directions: Find the bugs in algorithms, complete patterns, and practice IF-THEN thinking!
Part A: Find the Bug!

A bug is a mistake in your algorithm. Debugging means finding and fixing it!

Getting Ready for School

1. Wake up → 2. Put on shoes → 3. Get dressed → 4. Eat breakfast → 5. Walk to school

🐛 Which step is in the wrong place? ___ The correct order is:

Planting a Seed

1. Dig a hole → 2. Water the plant → 3. Put the seed in → 4. Cover with dirt → 5. Wait for it to grow

🐛 Which step should come after covering with dirt? ___ The correct order is:

Washing Your Hands

1. Turn on water → 2. Dry your hands → 3. Add soap → 4. Scrub for 20 seconds → 5. Rinse

🐛 Which step is in the wrong place? ___ The correct order is:

Part B: Pattern Power!

Computers are great at patterns! What comes next?

  1. 🔴 🔵 🔴 🔵 🔴 ___ ___
  2. ⬆️ ⬆️ ➡️ ⬆️ ⬆️ ➡️ ___ ___ ___
  3. 1, 2, 3, 1, 2, 3, ___, ___, ___
  4. 👏 👏 🦶 👏 👏 🦶 ___ ___ ___
  5. AB AB AB ___ ___
Part C: If-Then Thinking

Computers use IF-THEN rules. Finish each one:

IF it is raining THEN I will _______________

IF I am hungry THEN I will _______________

IF my friend is sad THEN I will _______________

IF _______________ THEN _______________ (write your own!)
