Hour of Code is Coming!

The Hour of Code is a world wide event designed to give students an opportunity to learn coding, or at least to experience it. The dates for this event are December 4 - 8 and Channahon School District 17 is taking part again! The goal is for all our students K - 8 to get an hour of coding experience over the course of that week. Currently, here is the plan for how to make that happen:

• At NBG, students will get to have some coding experiences in the IDEA Lab.
• At PP, Robyn will be scheduling times to come visit classes to facilitate coding activities with students.
• At TRS, I will be requesting time to come visit classrooms to facilitate coding activities.
• At CJHS, 7th grade students receive coding lessons each trimester through their computers arts rotation; 8th grade students will have coding lessons during their science class time.
