Learning how to code
What do 90% of schools NOT teach their students? How to code.
Code.org released an excellent video about the importance of learning to code in schools.
This was an inspiration for our school to start teaching code. I started a coding class with my students, and we are currently learning Kids Ruby. This has been an amazing process because I am learning this along with my students, and it has become an in-depth explorative class instead of a teacher-led class.
