Lessons have been assigned to them based on their diagnostic test results both in Math and Reading. Within each lesson are brain break games. The district is pushing a goal of 45 minutes per week on Online Lessons in ELA and 45 minutes per week in Math to close the gaps found in the diagnostic. Math and ELA are providing some of that time during the week, but not all.
WHAT ARE WE LEARNING: Kodu Game Lab! Kodu lets students create games via a simple visual programming language. Kodu is used to teach creativity, problem solving, storytelling, as well as programming.
WHY IS IT IMPORTANT: Computer Science and coding help nurture problem-solving skills, logic, and creativity. By starting early, students will have a foundation for success in any 21st-century career path.
HOW WILL MY TEACHER KNOW WHAT I LEARNED: This week you will complete Kodu Tutorials and give feedback as instructed!
