In my previous life I was a computer programmer and I am passionate about making sure every student gets a chance to try coding. During library media time at Parkway, students are introduced to Computer Science during the first week of December, to coincide with the Hour of Code event.
The students LOVE trying new coding activities. 3rd graders got to create their own Dance Party, using AI-generated background effects. 2nd grade tried to outwit those green pigs during Angry Bird coding. K5 and 1st graders kicked things off with CodeMonkey Jr. puzzles.
Make sure to ask your child to show you how they can think like a computer scientist, then sit down and code alongside them! Check out the HOC page on the Parkway Library website.
