Students learned to use variables.  We had a drama session where we mentioned that a variable is like a box that we place numbers in.  We did 2 simulations.  One where we counted hands that were up based on a question and we placed a rod in the box for each  count.  In simulation number 2, we did the Fibonacci sequence modelling, still in drama.  Students had access to the code I wrote.

Some decided to create their own work, counting by 5s or 10s, using variables.  Others did the Fibonacci sequence in drawing with their own creative decorations.

Interesting work.
