Let's Code — Mata Digital Learning
Every year Mata participates in the Hour of Code Week that is celebrated during the annual Computer Science Education Week in December. This event is a one hour challenge to introduce students to computer science by completing coding tutorial activities. Students explore coding applications that promotes creativity and problem solving skills. Students love the activities because they are engaging and fun. Students can create apps for their phones, design stories, animations interactive games, etc.
Want to take coding beyond the Hour of Code? Then go to https://hourofcode.com/us/learn Here students can learn coding apps - JavaScript, SCRATCH, create web pages, etc. Get ready to CODE!
Take time over the Winter Break and have fun with doing even more coding activities.
Season's Greetings to all!
