Our school participated in the Hour of Code week in December. We also had a UTD graduate student teacher 3rd, 4th, and 5th graders MIT Scratch coding in an afterschool club. All 4th graders have received introduction lessons to Code.org. Some of the students choose to practice computer coding during makerspace time while others choose to build. That's the great thing about makerspace time...it can many things to many people! Check out some of the action below...
I am also still on my quest to work through all 20 of the Bluebonnet nominee books. I am happy to report that the last two have been pretty good. Crenshaw was a carefully crafted story that will make your grateful for what you already have. Circus Mirandus weaves an intricate story from long ago into the current time period. I still prefer A Handful of Stars right now, but we'll see.
