Hour Of Code - Day 4 (Preparing To Teach A Level)

ACADEMIC/LEARNING OBJECTIVE

 

Students will prepare to TEACH a level from the Hour of Code to the class tomorrow.  Students will have to understand how the level works in order to explain it to the class.  Students will be called upon to present during class time tomorrow.

Students will learn basic computer programming using Code.Org online.  Students will understand the basic vocabulary used in programming.  Students will also be able to explain why it is important for everyone to learn to code and how it can provide equity in our society.


STUDENTS WILL ENTER THE CLASS QUIETLY AND BEGIN WORKING!

READ ALL DIRECTIONS BELOW BEFORE STARTING WORK!


Today we will continue to celebrate Computer Science Education Week!  We are part of 180 nations and thousands of schools worldwide who are concentrating on Computer Science this week!


STEP 1:  Complete Your Code.Org "Hour Of Code" Program


Students will sign into their CODE.ORG account with their Crossroads GMAIL Address and the password they created last week.  Students will continue to work on the programming levels in order on their individual lesson page.  They can use headphones for watching the training videos only!  NO MUSIC OR OTHER VIDEOS ALLOWED! 

Most of you should be done with your HOUR OF CODE and have joined our INTRO COURSE. To JOIN any of our classes, sign in to your Code.Org account and go to the class website to CLICK the link for each class.  You will be registered in the classes for credit.  Anyone who completes levels without registering will not receive credit.  There will be some repeated material, but the INTRO COURSE has a number of additional lessons that you might be interested in.  See the links for our Code.Org classes in the Critical Links Section to the Left!
