A big thank you to Jen Lipa for providing additional PD to some of our 3rd and 4th grade ACE students. Jen has become an expert in the Green Screen Animation App which provides the ability for students to animate their green screen backgrounds. Brian Pauly's ACE students intend on using this app as a way to display their thinking on their most recent book talks. What a great connection to curriculum & tech!
So many teachers have reached out to participate in the hour of code! Look at Shelia Freese's class! They all participated and received certificates for their participation! Awesome work!
Today I spent some time researching the importance of coding in the classroom. It is unbeliable the number of students who will graduate without jobs when leaving college however there is such a significant gap in the computer science today. This is mainly because our students have not been exposed to coding skills in the classroom. Learn all about the importance and how you can incorpate code in the classroom! Watch how code can impact your students futures below! |
