If you've been following our blog, you know that we've started coding in Grade 1! We have successfully been using a fun, kid-friendly tool called Kodable.
Today, we took some time to reflect and share our ideas about Kodable. We are sending this information on to the Kodable organization so they know what our class thinks about their coding tool!
Coding is very fun and I like getting to higher levels - B.
I like to play Kodable with a friend. - J.
I don't like when the fuzz gets stuck. Then we have to try again. - B
I really like when it is on the last arrow, then I've done it all right. I did it. - J.
I did like that the levels were hard enough for me. - A.
I like the hard levels because I smash into the bugs in the dirt. - C.
I like when I unlock levels. - C.
I love hard levels because they are fun. - L.
I like unlocking new fuzzes. The special commands are hard. - R.
I like checking the path by tracing it with my finger. - A.
Is there going to be a Kodable 2 or an update for Kodable? - A.
I've unlocked Ruby Fuzz and Shadow Fuzz at home! - A.
I like to play the game Kodable because it helps me get better at coding and it is fun. - M.
I like when I don't get it right because I can always try again. - K.
I was very impressed with the thoughtful and honest responses from my students. We will be trying out some new coding tools in the upcoming weeks, but I am sure Kodable will remain a class favourite!
