December 15th - 18th OMS will welcome third, fourth and fifth grade students into the LMC during their lunch recess to introduce them to the Hour of Code. This is optional, students will sign up if they are interested during their LMC time the week of December 1st - 5th. Depending on the amount of interest, students will be assigned to one or two sessions. The activities the students participate in on code.org are "teaching them to write simple code to solve puzzles to get to the next level" (Hadi code.orgfounder). Students do not need a username and password to participate in these activities, and they can explore code.org at home. We are hoping to get students excited about computer programming. We will continue to integrate this into lessons to build persistence, collaboration, problem solving, striving for accuracy, and more.
