Hour of Code

Coding is one of my favorite activities, so Computer Science week (Dec. 5th-9th) is one of my favorite weeks!  Several classes at Greenwood participated in the Hour of Code.  Ms. Baum’s 5th grade class tried the new Moana module on code.org.  In these challenges, students have to use the correct blocks of code to help Moana and Maui navigate through the ocean and catch fish.

Ms. Wilbur’s 4th grade class completed the same Moana module, but they were excited to code on new HP Chromebooks. They will be piloting these Chromebooks in their classroom for the next three weeks, so every student in the room will have a device to work on during this time frame.

The students in Ms. Farmer’s 3rd grade class practiced coding by creating a multiplication game in Tynker following this code.org Multiplication Escape module.
