Hello everyone. We have launched computer coding in our room. Students are working on learning how to code computer software. We are using this as part of our math and science instruction. It also teaches students how to solve problems, critically think, persevere during hard work and other important skills. We are going to be progressing through a variety of computer and hands-on methods. Your students are learning the basics about creating algorithms to solve problems and how to debug simple codes right now. Each student can access the training program at home by logging in with their Google account on www.code.org. I encourage you to have your student login and show you what they are working on. I also hope you will take a few minutes and watch this quick video that talks about what coding is, what it does for our world today and why it is important. As always, thank you for taking that time to connect with the work your students are accomplishing at school!
