During these lessons students will learn, try, apply and connect with coding as we learn to code a program. We delves into the meaning of coding and how to use it with weekly challenges. Students will learn coding and programming skills such as how to use Commands, Functions, Loops and Variables. This class works with limited reading, as we use pictures to code our characters. However, the coding concepts are transferable. Lesson Structure: - I will explicitly teach new skill. - I will model how to use new skill. - Students are supported through a number of challenges to practice using the new skill. - Students will have a chance to share what they have created, if they wish. Lesson 1: How to make codes Lesson 2: Programming Lesson 3: What are Loops? Lesson 4: Loops to Collect Treasure This lesson is beginner friendly and suited for students who really want to understand why we code and how it can be used in the future. Students do not need to download software or have a log in for this class.
