VEX ROBOTICS VEX 123 Mwongozo wa Mmiliki wa Roboti Inayoweza Kupangwa

This Scope and Sequence is designed to offer a pathway to teaching Computer Science with VEX 123, with students who are familiar with the robot.
Lessons begin with coding with the Coder and Coder cards and progress to using VEXcode 123.

Each week gives guidance for what teachers can do before, during, and after class in order to be prepared for the computer science concepts and teaching with VEX 123 curricular resources.

Kumbuka: If students have never used VEX 123 before, it is recommended to complete the Introduction to VEX 123 Scope and Sequence (Google doc / .pdf) kwanza.
