Computer science lesson plan
Class:3rd - Lesson:15 Basic Repeat Condition and Tools 1.

Purpose: Students will start by guiding the knight to move when an arrow key is pressed. Students will use different events to make a character move around the screen, make noises, and change backgrounds based on the user-initiated events. (by code.org - Course A) Students should learn to perform these actions alternatively by using the tools other than using the ‘Repeat’ loop.
