PSSST…. Do you know what is just around the corner?
Come join us as we celebrate and learn during Hour of Code – December 7 – 13th.
What is it you ask? This is a worldwide effort to show that anyone can learn the basics of code with a series of one hour activities (both plugged and unplugged). Its focus is NOT to become a coder or programmer, but to nurture problem-solving skills, logic and creativity. And when you include reflection, you’ve added multiple core competencies to the process. Who wouldn’t want that! Just imagine all those opportunities to grow your neurons with a community of learners.
There are entrances for everyone – all you need is launch your curiosity and wonder.
