Computer Coding in ANY Class


"Coding just doesn't fit my subject." I've heard it said many times. I'll let you in on a secret...I said it myself once upon a time.

Coding can provide so many opportunities for our students not only in the future, but TODAY! Knowing how to code allows them to create something unique, to make something rather than have it made, students can carry this skill far beyond our classrooms.

Alice Keeler describes in her blog "Kid's Start Coding Their Vocabulary" how your students can code tomorrow! I'm sure your class has some set of vocabulary students regularly learn. Why not combine the boring task of writing definitions with writing code.

Ms. Keeler also provides a Google Slide set of instructions that teachers can use. You don't have to be an expert at coding to help students learn. Learn with them!

HAPPY CODING!
