Input, Process, Output
Understand that computing systems receive input, process it, and generate output.
Story
You are the programmer. Your friend is the robot. Let's see if it obeys!
Concept
Every computing system follows 3 steps: receive data (input), think with it (process), and show a result (output).
Analogy
Like juice: fruit goes in, the blender processes, and juice comes out.
Activity
Human robot game: one child gives commands and the other acts as a robot following exactly what was said.
Challenge
Create a silly machine on paper. Show the input, the process, and the output.
Safety Minute
Before clicking a link, stop and think: do I know who sent it? Does it look strange? Does it promise something free?
Quiz
Project (optional)
Reflection
- Was it harder to be the programmer or the robot? Why?
- Where else do you see input → process → output in your day?
