With 12 years of Scratch coding experience with learners from K-12, I am enthusiastic about learners coding as a basic literacy in the digital age. I have been fortunate to attend workshops and professional development in many areas of technology. Being able to tell a story from start to finish helps learners to be able to work with and understand the technology around them. Coding at a prepares learners for the future and helps in areas of communication, creativity, math, writing, and confidence. Reviews
