What & why

When learning to program the biggest problem is trying to remember the names of all the functions.

Reassembling code from pre-written pieces helps you remember and understand the functions without having to recall them from memory.

Assembling code pieces together is programming.

Set up

  1. Form into pairs
  2. Download the pre-written JavaScript code snippets
  3. Print & cut out all the pieces of code
  4. Reassemble the jumbled pieces into a functional program to match the English you did in the last activity
