Sheridan is doing this, as part of the math program I believe, but I don't know if all or just some of the grades are participating.

Are the coding classes an extra curricular activity or part of the school curriculum?

They have an amazing technology integration specialist who brings tech into the classroom instead of making tech a stand alone thing. Her energy, knowledge and enthusiasm is amazing. If your interested in what Norwood does, you should contact her.

"Why, thank you!" What a lovely an unexpected compliment (I am the ed tech at Norwood. )

We are doing Hour of Code in the Lower School and it is such a delight! The kids are working through problems and tasks using primarily iPad apps. Our middle school is piloting an elective in coding using a variety of resources to engage students in thinking skills and languages related to programming. I'd be happy to collaborate with any ed techs or teachers at local schools. Send them Norwood's way!

Have a super day!

public school---both middle and ES kids are doing it
