  • 5–15 minutes long
  • Minimal materials (whiteboard, dice, flashcards, or no supplies)
  • Adaptable to any subject (math, language arts, science, ESL, etc.)
  • Focus on review, teamwork, movement, or brain breaks
  • Purpose: Rapid debugging and algorithmic thinking.
  • Setup: Short scaffolded code snippet with a bug or missing logic. “Move” = one change to code or one test run.
  • Activity: In pairs, students have up to 100 moves (or 10 moves for younger learners) to fix and pass tests. Track moves used; fewer moves = mastery.
  • Variations: Pair programming, whiteboard pseudo-code rounds.
  • Fix: Use "Handicap scoring." The losing team starts the next round with 100x bonus points. Equity over equality.
