Everyone can learn how to code! Today, students were introduced to the world of computer programming. Students watched a quick video about 'CODE.ORG' and were introduced to computer programming. We discussed logic and step by step instructions. They learned, "If this, then .....". Students then stepped right into the 'HOUR OF CODE' lessons and in the Spirit of 'FROZEN', they created programs that instructed Elsa and Anna to create unique snowflake designs. Parents, please check your child's FreshGrade for a link to their program.
