Hour of Code ar RES, December 2018
This week RES students will be participating in Hour of Code during enrichment classes. The week of December 3rd - 7th, 2018 all RES students in grades kindergarten through four will have a hands on introduction to computer programming with Hour of Code activities during their enrichment classes!
Computer programming helps nurture problem-solving skills, logic and creativity in people of all ages. Kindergarten, first and second graders will use Scratch Jr. app for iPads, while third and fourth graders will choose from a variety of tutorials on Code.org.
Introducing Hour of Code! Here is a great video explaining some of the benefits of coding:
