Countdown to Winter Break Day 1: Codecademy

10 Days to Go!!!

Countdown to Winter Break: Day 1

Codecademy and The Hour of Code

Codecademy is an interactive website dedicated to teaching how to code.  Great for extending computer science lessons or just giving students a new knowledge for something relating to their every day life!  
Today marks the beginning of "The Hour of Code".  This is a world-wide collaboration (lasting until December 14th) focused on teaching students and adults alike the basics of coding.  The goal is to spend 1 hour learning (playing) and realizing that it isn't all that scary!  It's actually quite fun!
Interested in helping your students learn to code?  Check out the teaching guide and let me know!  I'd love to help you participate in this event.
