Hour of Code 2020

 Hour of Code is an initiative to get kids coding. Each year in December, there are lots of special events and activities from various apps and websites to encourage students to learn about computer programming. Our students use a variety of programs depending on their grade level:

Kodable 


Code Spark Academy

Tynker


Lightbot


Swift Playgrounds


Dash Robots-Blockly


Most of these have free activities that you can do. Coding is an interactive activity that requires students to come up with solutions and solve problems. It is an excellent way for them to learn new skills and follow directions. To learn more about Hour of Code you can watch these videos. Click on the links below to learn more about Hour of Code.
