After presenting about the Kids Who Code project with Mrs. Caldwell this morning, I attended two sessions.
Presented by: Jennifer Young
The project is a global reading collaboration which brings classrooms around the world together to focus on common texts. Educators nominate books and they are short listed for a final vote. There are different book choices for each age group. The 2015 read aloud starts October 5 and I am excited to join this interesting book study collaboration!

Presenter: Meagan Chopek
It was great to hear from another Manitoban early years teacher who is also teaching coding! Meagan shared a lot of great ideas for "unplugged" activities and for using Kodable, Tynker and Scratch Jr. in the classroom. Her blog is mrschopeksclass.eduBlogs.org
