Is there a link to a generically blank java lab that can be accessed without being inside of a unit?
Can students save code when they use this feature?
I am thinking of some additional warm up questions and/or AP FRQ extensions that I would want to use in addition to this curriculum.
Hi @sfaulkner ,
At the end of each unit there is a “sandbox” lesson for students to use to experiment or explore code that isn’t part of a lesson. I have taken a screenshot of this below for unit 1. This sandbox operates like any other level. Students can save their code to their backpack.
Students are also able to create a blank javalab by using this URL: Code.org
Students will not be able to save code to their backpack in these “projects” though. Nor are they able to access files in their backpack. Their code will get “saved” in the specific project and they will be able to have multiple files in that project, but they won’t be able to pull old files from their backpack here.
Hope that helps,
Kaitie
I think there’s an issue with FileReader with this Java Lab.
@klee2 Could you give us more information? What Unit are you in? Is this the CED or Object First curriculum?

This post has some info that might be helpful for using the FileReader class in a sandbox level.
FileReader in the Theater - #4 by jhyatt
Basically, if it is a level that wasn’t set up to use the FileReader, you need to create a class on that level that has the FileReader code.
I hope this helps, or if this isn’t the fix for your issue, please reply back.
