Share with parents and families what students are learning about coding with these whimsical and informative newsletters.Students love coding and their families are eager to continue that passion at home. However, they don’t always know where to begin or how to do it. These newsletters teach families about different coding concepts and skills. While also giving them fun, everyday ideas to teach and reinforce the skills. Ideas such as books, board games, life skills, and free apps! After download

Help students code & write simple algorithms while engaging in Computational Thinking without robots! Coding can be a difficult concept for young children to understand, even with highly engaging robots and apps.  When coding a robot or on an app, many children lack the necessary spatial recognition required to make a character turn.  These hands-on activities support young programmers as they begin to build these skills.  They allow them to manipulate materials and plan out a piece of code befo

Introduce Coding Concepts to PreK Students.Teach young programmers about coding concepts like sequences or series, loops, and conditionals. The activities included in this bundle engage students with drawing, cute creatures, and tablets.  Each activity can be paired with a read aloud or used on its own. This BUNDLE includes all of these great resources: House Coded Drawing → great to use with the book The Napping House or This Little House, and moreShape Characters Coded Drawing → great to use w

Teach students coding skills while they draw. Directed drawing is a great way to help students understand what coding is and related coding concepts. Since drawing is a familiar activity, students have the ability to focus their attention on coding specific terms.  Teaching students coding concepts begins with activities that they are familiar with.  These activities draw on students’ knowledge of shapes, lines, and directional relation to teach them about sequencing and conditionals.  AFTER dow

FUN activities to teach and reinforce coding and computational thinking vocabulary while students have fun! Help your students master important vocabulary terms! Students love to code and need to acquire computer science terms to master computer science.  If you teach coding or computer science to elementary students, you know how necessary but tricky learning coding vocabulary is. Robotics and coding games are incredibly engaging. Students are creating algorithms, loops, conditionals, changin
