December News
December is here and we have been busy with instruction, special projects, and student performances. We are looking forward to more activities in the next two weeks leading up to Winter Break. It's hard to believe the year is almost half over. We have accomplished so much but there is still work to be done! Thank you for your continued support of our school, school programs, and events. The amount of parent support here at Hansen is truly amazing.
Hour of Code
Students worked on coding characters to dance to different song choices.
I Did Hour of Code
Students signed their names on the wall and got a sticker to signify they completed the Hour of Code.
Teachers Coding
Our teachers learned to use our Cubetto device in order to pass their knowledge to our TK/Kinder students.
Hour of Code
December 3-7 was Computer Science in Education Week. During this week, schools across the globe participate in the Hour of Code. All Hansen students spent an hour in our Makerspace working on various coding activities. They had a wonderful time and are so excited to get to go back to the Makerspace each week to learn and create. Each class will have one hour a week to spend in our Learning Commons (Library/Makerspace) where they can check out books and work on grade-level STEM curriculum. To learn more about a few of the programs and devices students have access to please visit the links provided below.
