Understanding how to code is an important part of many job fields that my students will enter in the future. I want to provide them an opportunity to learn about coding in an engaging, age-appropriate way in order to keep them up to date with current technologies. Students will be able to use the challenge cards to learn, step-by-step, how to program the robots to make sounds, move, play music, and more! Coding helps students understand the importance of sequencing, giving clear directions, and following directions. In addition, they will get to practice interpersonal skills of teamwork, sharing, turn-taking, and taking responsibility as they learn to code!
