In this class, we will explore what coding is, how its used, simple coding, and play some games. Students will use their devices to code on scratch.com and play some coded games. Students will be guided step by step through the process from beginning to end. By the conclusion of the class, students should have basic knowledge of coding. They should also have the ability to take what they have learned and create/play on their own time. As they explore I will also explain the practical uses of coding and what the possible next steps would be on their coding journey!

Teacher expertise and credentials
North Carolina Teaching Certificate in Secondary Education
Hi, My name is Emily Ludlam and I teach 8th grade Science currently. I am a certified teacher with my K-6 degree in elementary education. I also have my certification to teach middle school Science and Gifted students. I am currently working as a classroom teacher. 5 years ago I work at a local Science Center and managed a STEM grant through that school system and NC State University for 3 years. We also went around to the local elementary schools and put on Science shows! I truly believe that if students are not having fun they will not be engaged and they will in turn not learn. I am also the mother of two beautiful children and 3 fur babies. Oh and a frog plus a husband.Reviews
