Tuesday Tidbit
Get Ready for Hour of Code
Code.org
You may remember that a few weeks ago I put something in the Tidbit about Hour of Code. NEXT week, December 5-9, is our time to host an Hour of Code. They provide the lessons, and all you have to do is allow your students to get on and try. You can pick the lesson or they can choose their own at www.code.org/learn. I've registered our school to participate, and I hope you'll join in the fun! Research shows that there are not nearly enough qualified candidates to fill the computer science job openings. Code.org wants to ensure that every student has the opportunity to learn computer science.
Watch the video below for more information. It is super simple to get going, and I know the kids will have a great time. Please let me know if you plan to participate.
