Subject: Code.org Workshop


Dear Colleagues,

I am very excited to share with you a free workshop that will be offered in
district on Monday, August 12th. Regardless of what subject you teach,
computer science is foundational knowledge for all students in the 21st
century. Besides, this is a subject the kids love learning.

With the help of Code.org, I am providing a no cost, one-day workshop for
elementary school teachers (and administrators!) interested in teaching and
learning about computer science. Even if you have participated in one of
their workshops in the past, please join us since the curriculum has been
updated for the 2019-2010 school year.

What’s in a workshop?

including an intro to computer science, pedagogy, overview of the NEW
