Kids Who Code: Preparing for our Code-a-thon
Our preparation for the Code-a-thon has focused on becoming coding experts so we can help others during the event. Students submitted their top choices for coding tools they'd like to focus on and from there we created teams to "specialize" in each coding tool. Students were in charge of exploring the app and becoming familiar with how to code using the specific tool. Each team also created a set of instructions with text and screenshots. I'm really proud of my students' work and I wanted to share their instructions for each coding tool in case other classes find them helpful. Click here to see our instructions for Kodable, Tynker, Hopscotch, Code Monkey, Lightbot, Scratch Jr and Daisy the Dinosaur!
