What is going on in 4B NOW?
Next week, your children will be joining nearly 5 million students from around the world as they partake in an event called the Hour of Code. It is Computer Science Education Week next week and part of their initiative is to introduce coding to a whole new generation of students ages 4 - 104.
Our class will be participating next Weds., Dec. 11th from 1 - 3pm. Each student will follow along at their own pace using a chromebook in our class. I need to ask that each one of them bring in a pair of earbuds for this day. This will allow them to listen to video tutorials while not being distracted by their neighbor's computer. These can be sent in as soon as Monday so that I can make sure everyone has a pair by Weds.
Also, if their are any interested parents who would like to join us, to help or to learn, please just let me know.
