Some great resources are: Keyboard Climber 2, Dance Mat Typing, and Typetastic
Grades 2-4 will be creating Winter Rebus Stories in Google Docs and building a snowman in Google Slides! 

Grades K-1 will use the Bee-Bot robots to code their way through numbers and/or sight words using sequencing which they were introduced to last week.
Grade 2 will use the Dash robots to learn about sequencing and complete challenges to understand how to code
Grades 3-4 will learn loops in coding using the Dash robots
Grades 5-8 will be working on their cardboard arcade projects. Projects are due 1/24 and will be showcased at CSW Open House

Grades 5-8 will continue their cardboard arcade projects. Due 1/24/20
Grades K-2 will engineer mazes and code BeeBots! 
Grade 3-4 will be introduced to sequencing in coding with the Dash Robots

Grades K-2 will answer the BIG questions, "How can you build a 'just right' bed for Goldilocks?" 
Grade 3 worked on a variety of activities from coding to building
Grade 4 will use the Dash robots to code a program that will get them from start to finish using a coordinate grid. 

STEM Literacy Connection: Students will listen to the story, Olive the Other Reindeer, and complete the challenge -- "Can you make a dog fly?" 

Using makerspace resources, they will develop a way to connect their Olive the Dog to a zipline to make her successful fly across the room.

This week all grades will learn about coding during Hour of Code Week! 

The Hour of Code takes place each year during Computer Science Education Week. The 2019 Computer Science Education Week will be December 9-15.

We will be learning about coding through a variety of activities including "unplugged" activities and those involve Chromebooks, tablets, and robots!
