Many of my students will be learning to code for the first time this year. While they have become more experienced with technology, their opportunities to understand how technology works has been limited. In the upcoming months, 4th and 5th grade students will being learning how to code. Students thrive when given the opportunities to learn with hands-on activities. Legos are a favorite among students and ignite sparks of creativity. This kit unites their love of building with a solid foundation in coding. Students will be able to work in pairs and experience coding in a whole new way. The modules are engaging and provide easy step-by-step instructions for independent learning. By providing a hands-on component, students with special needs and limited reading abilities can still experience great success in learning how to code. Please help me invest in my students by providing them with this unique learning experience.
