SCSC-Teaching the Coding Block for grades 7 & 8 from a Project-Based Approach



You’ve been asked to teach coding...now what?  Are you interested in looking at multiple free online coding tools such as Micro:Bit, App Lab and Pencil Code that will allow you to teach the coding block from a project-based approach? You will have the opportunity to leave this training with a plan to teach your class in an exciting and engaging manner.  Intended for the teacher who will provide instruction in the 7-8 Coding block.  Participants will explore the Arkansas Coding Block standards through a series of activities that can be used in classroom instruction.  Instructional strategies and extension activities for those offering more than the 4-week requirement will be included. Participants need a computer/laptop that is not a tablet.

TESS components addressed for this workshop include:  Domain 1 & 3.
