Coding

Coding Workshop Big Success!

Two Woodson students committed to teaching others how to code sponsored a coding workshop at Canterbury Woods Elementary School.  Thirty-one eager fourth, fifth and sixth grade students attended the event. 

Victoria and Sara helped the students build game-like scenes using Code.org.  The students created “Dance Party” scenes complete with backgrounds, music, dance moves and lots of humor.  Behind the fun, serious learning took place.  The students learned how to manipulate their Sprites, complete logic challenges, and designed their scenes to meet specifications created by the student leaders.  There were giggles, fist bumps, smiles and celebrations as the students created.  Everyone learned a bit of code, had a lot of fun, and enjoyed the afternoon.  Thanks to Victoria and Sara for teaching coding to our students!
