Celebrating Computer Science Education Week
Hour of Code, 2020
In celebration of Computer Science Education Week (December 7 - 13, 2020) classes at Spofford Pond Elementary School were encouraged to participate in an Hour of Code. Hour of Code is a worldwide phenomenon that reaches tens of millions of students in almost 200 countries. Spofford Pond’s school wide coding event is just one of hundreds of thousands that take place during this week around the globe.
In years past, all students would take part in the Hour of Code with me during their library-media classes. This year, students were offered access to an Hour of Code hyperdoc with various coding activities from the Hour of Code website. Students were given the chance to learn computer science skills, math skills, problem-solving and perseverance in each coding activity. Through the hyperdoc they could work creatively to solve the puzzles and move through the programming lessons.
The Hour of Code hyperdoc offered opportunities for amazing discoveries, fun creations and confidence building exercises.
