@madisonterry02 This book is so adorable! Thank you for sharing, Madison!

"Kids Get Coding" is an awesome step-by-step guide to helping kids learn the basics of game programming! #FRIT7234Summer24

Cross-curricular instruction might require you to think outside of the box, but it's worth it! What a creative way to combine two (seemingly) different subjects!

Musical note composing and programming with CodeHS! Exposing students to how Computer Science can be used cross curricular! ⁦@LucasClamp⁩ ⁦@RBHSGators⁩ ⁦@CodeHS⁩

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

Using a cross-curricular approach to instruction by integrating CS skills in "traditional" subject areas will help engage students in their learning *and* give them opportunities to make connections they might not have made previously. #FRIT7234Summer24

Pattern creation activities are great ways for students to build on their higher level thinking skills! #FRIT7234Summer24

[Mark Chubb @MarkChubb3]

Create your own visual pattern…
Record your pattern in a table…
Graph your data…

Is your pattern growing? Shrinking? Repeating?

Is there a linear relationship?

What might your kids do? Are you ready to be surprised???

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

@nganttski Pattern recognition is such a fun way for students to think more deeply about the information in front of them! #FRIT7234Summer24

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

Concepts like abstraction and decomposition are important skills in all subject areas if we want to encourage critical thinking and reasoning skills. Hands-on approaches allow students to physically and mentally manipulate information. #FRIT7234Summer24

[Payton McCrory @Ms_McCrory]

We are practicing our math talk by explaining to each other how we decomposed a number!! I love hearing their brains working in so many different ways✨ #FISDElevate @LiscanoElem

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

@nganttski I tell my students that test writers are "really mean" because they give us useless information to confuse and slow us down. Explicitly teaching abstraction/decomposition is necessary for helping students with word problems...especially struggling readers! #FRIT7234Summer24

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

Love this movement based activity to get students working together to debug! Helping students gain confidence by encouraging them to persevere is SO important when introducing frustrating concepts like debugging! #FRIT7234Summer24

[MrsHannon112 @mrshannon_112]

💕 Ss are programming each other. I can’t get over their debugging skills 🙌 The kids are on 🔥 Thank you 😊 @csforall for your resources!! #coding #programming #algorithms #debugging #edtech #edtechteachers #csforma #twister #teacherresources

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

@AbbeyHJ12 I love this! Hands-on activities like this are so important for those little learners to practice these skills since so much of this content is foreign to them!

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

This goes hand in hand with the "Engineered Inequity" reading. A large percentage of our society is finding themselves "locked out" of the discussion on tech. #FRIT7234Summer24

[Equity @EquityUK]

This is about how we understand ourselves as a society.

AI is regressive and draws on a disproportionately white and male group of creators.

A too-liberal legal framework reinforces those inequities and excludes marginalised groups.

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

It is so important that we teach our students to think critically about the technology they consume! Creating critically thinking consumers will influence the way technology is created. #FRIT7234Summer24

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

@AbbeyHJ12 Now I'm going down a rabbit hole! I mean, it makes total sense to me. Think about how our social media's create our perfect algorithm and present things to us that, based on their calculations, we'll like. That is wild! #FRIT7234Summer24

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

@abbymasters2000 It is wild how FOR YOU they make everyone's "for you page"! 😵‍💫

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

Such a great whole brain teaching activity to help students understand algorithms! #FRIT7234Summer24

[Simon Hunt @simonjameshunt]

Dancing is a great way to teach coding and algorithms. Algorithms are a set of instructions, just like the instructions for a dance. By challenging the children to write their algorithm for a dance, they are effectively writing code!

@AbbeyHJ12 I so agree! I love finding new ways to relate to my students and make learning more accessible to them. Excited to use Scratch to help teach sequence of events! #FRIT7234summer24

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

@JWhite0301 Must be nice to have a live-in tutor! 😂

[Caroline Parrish @msparrishteach]

This is so cool! Giving students the ability to animate stories of their own creation could help improve interest and engagement in narrative writing. #FRIT7234Summer24

[My Pet Hooligan @mypethooligan]

AI can generate new ideas, provide real time feedback, and even collaborate on projects. Pushing the boundaries of what is possible in creative fields…

Used Scratch to make a cartoon cat run across the beach in Rio while meowing and changing colors every 10 seconds...I love coding. #FRIT7234Summer24
