Teach an Hour of Code™
with CS First from Anywhere |
|
| Hi Barbara, |
| We’ve almost made it to the end of 2020 -- and that’s a good thing because it means it’s almost Computer Science Education Week! From December 7-13, communities around the globe will celebrate and learn computer science by participating in an Hour of Code™, and you can join them! |
|
 |
|
| Doing an Hour of Code™ may look different in 2020 for many teachers, students, and families, so CS First is offering options to support a variety of learning environments, so anyone can code from anywhere. |
|
 |
| We’ve created a new lesson that can be used completely offline and without a computer. CS First Unplugged includes a printable booklet that contains three computational thinking activities in which students learn about how computer science helps us communicate and stay connected with people around the world. |
| See lesson plan >> |
|
|
 |
| For those looking to participate in Hour of Code™ with connected devices, CS First’s Dialogue lesson is a great one to engage with this year. This beginner-friendly activity includes our usual video-based instruction to guide students as they program a conversation between two characters, using Scratch. |

| CS First Unplugged and Dialogue are both available in English and Spanish. Lesson plans and solution guides for teachers (or parents and guardians!) are also provided so that anyone can teach and learn with Hour of Code™ -- no prior CS experience required. |
| Happy coding, |
| The CS First Team |
