Coding and Clothing!

Tomorrow your children will be participating in
THE HOUR OF CODE!
Today we began our unit of study on economics.
The children discussed what type of job he/she would like when they are a bit taller.
I provided the children with an overview of coding. 
Tomorrow they will code. This may be a career path he or she may choose! ;) 
COMPUTER SCIENCE!  HOW COOL! Any one of our friends could be the next Bill Gates!
We watched this video!

Here are some other videos that will help you to understand coding a bit more.

Tomorrow the children will learn how to code on a special app. I will add that app to our blog then as not to ruin the surprise!
During our small group rotations the children will be lead by Mr. Neihoff in coding. They WILL be spending 20 minutes coding in school. 
If this is something that they enjoy, I encourage you to allow them to do some more at home.
I will then add this to an IPAD station in the days to come.


Please make sure that your child has their winter coat, hat, and gloves with them tomorrow.
We are using them for a project.


Thanks!
