It's "Hour of Code" Week!



Today marks the beginning of the "Hour of Code" week (December 4-10).  “The 'Hour of Code™' is a nationwide initiative by Computer Science Education Week and Code.org to introduce millions of students to one hour of computer science and computer programming."




At South Middle, our students will be participating in "Hour of Code" in a variety of ways.  If they are taking a class with the Technology department, they will be doing an activity through hourofcode.org.  Our library will also be hosting events during the lunch periods to allow students to code on the computers, iPads and also use a variety of coding robots we have (i.e. Dash and Dot, Sphero, Cubelets, Ozobots, MakeyMakey and more!).  

You can also sign up for "Hour of Code" events at your local Apple store by click on this link...

Please see Mrs. Graybosch with any questions you have and we look forward to seeing you in the library this week!!
