I think I speak for everyone when I say thank you for awesome training! The vibe I got as teachers were leaving was one of excitement and relief that they could do this. I appreciate all the work you guys have put into this to make it easy for the elementary teachers to access the lessons and know what they need to do.

Project-based Lessons for Elementary

Each lesson is modular and very hands-on! Teachers are provided a tutorial video for ease of preparation along with a detailed rubric and differentiation options to shorten or extend each lesson. The scope and sequence of lessons will be customizable based on the district's needs.

Scratch for CodeHS Elementary

CodeHS Elementary primarily uses Scratch and ScratchJr, a block-based programming environment. Students create digital stories, games, and animations while learning the basics of programming. Scratch is developed by the Lifelong Kindergarten Group at the MIT Media Lab. See http://scratch.mit.edu.

CodeHS also offers a growing library of physical computing projects using micro:bit, robotics (Wonder Cue, Ozobot), and Lego Wedo.
