ACADEMIC/LEARNING OBJECTIVE
Students will learn basic computer programming using Code.Org online. Students will understand the basic vocabulary used in programming. Students will also be able to explain why it is important for everyone to learn to code and how it can provide equity in our society.
STUDENTS WILL ENTER THE CLASS QUIETLY AND BEGIN WORKING!
Students will start by completing a Google Classroom Question:
Why Should Students Learn To Read And Write Computer Code?
Students will watch a short video and participate in a discussion about future careers and equity. Students will then play a game to introduce basic vocabulary and terms. Students will sign up for accounts on Code. Org and begin working through the program online.
THANK YOU FOR YOUR ATTENTION AND POSITIVE ATTITUDE TODAY!
