Currently in Brazil, educational institutions seek to adapt to the new recommendations of the Common National Curricular Base (BNCC), facing this, there is a challenge that is the insertion of Computational Thinking in a structured way in basic education in a multidisciplinary way. This work has as a research problem the lack of material to develop skills in the learning process of Computational Thinking aligned with the disciplines of basic education of the BNCC. The goal of the research was to create the kit Educational Computer in Physical Blocks (CEBF) that had the characteristics as low cost, using unplugged computing that does not require electricity, is scalable and easy to produce both manually and industrially with a cutting angle of 120º in the parts to facilitate manual cutting and fitting of physical parts to teach Computational Thinking, Programming and Computer Science in an interconnected and multidisciplinary way meeting the BNCC. As a solution proposed in the research was created the Educational Computer in Physical Blocks (CEBF) that allows the development of computational algorithms in a manual writing form on the physical blocks without the need for electricity and can be easily reproduced and applied in any school and being in accordance with the awareness of the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). For this, a literature review was conducted in order to generate a knowledge base that can facilitate the creation of the Computational Thinking teaching plan using Unplugged Computing for Basic Education meeting the competencies and skills of the BNCC, and also verified the needs to meet international boards of education (e.g., College Board and Common Core State Standards Initiative) by the trend of a global education. Through the literature review, it was observed that another important issue is the creation of teaching plans that include methods for evaluating the learning of Computational Thinking that can be applied in basic education. It is also relevant to note that the teaching plans should take into consideration the cognitive age of the students, various types of programming languages, such as programming using blocks (visual programming) in a playful way to facilitate the student's teaching-learning process.
