This week, your daughter participated in the Hour of Code. “The Hour of Code is a global movement reaching tens of millions of students in 180+ countries” (hourofcode.com). We use this as an introduction to the programming your daughter will be doing throughout the year. Learning the basics of programming reinforces problem solving and logic skills.
In Pre-First, we learned how to use basic directions (forward, turn left, turn right, jump, and light) to control Light Bot. Next, we will learn how to use the Kodable app to learn more about programming and in the spring, we will use path to control the Dash robots!
If you would like your daughter to explore more at home, use this link. Please note, different activities run on different devices and are appropriate for various ages.
