Hour Of Code Day!

Today we used Khan Academy to guide us through some basic coding involving creating shapes and filling colors.

Teachers - this is a nice STEAM lesson.  Science (meteorology can be woven into this lesson a bit), technology, art, engineering and mathematics are all key components.

Some key questions to consider:

- Why are we coding?
- What impact can coding have in our world?
- What sort of math skills are necessary for coding?

We had fun, and we all learned.  Students feel free to further explore! If you're interested, join our Girls Who Code club in CHS!

Here's some pics:
