Glen Acres Library Happenings
Second Trimester 2019-20 Volume 3, Edition 2
Welcome!
Glen Acres Elementary School is excited to continue computer programming in the 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade library curriculum this school year with Mrs. Congialdi and tech community partners. As you know, the last few years we established a successful partnership with Uncommon Individual Foundation (UIF) to help us with 3D printing and STEM activities and BSD Education, a local tech education company that teaches computer science to help students develop problem-solving skills that will provide them a strong foundation for their future schooling and careers.
Students are building real websites using HTML and CSS, the fundamental building blocks of the web. They will use the skills they develop to create online portfolios. Check out students' websites at our first annual GAE Coding Website Expo!
GAE Coding Website Expo
You are cordially invited to attend our Glen Acres Coding Website Expo, where Fifth, Fourth, and Third Grade students will showcase their HTML & CSS coding skills!
Students combined research skills with HTML & CSS coding languages to create their own websites during Library Specials classes.
Kindly RSVP if your Fifth, Fourth, or Third Grader will be able to showcase their work. All students must be accompanied by an adult.
****Only students who RSVP by March 13th will present****
