Computer Science Education week is an annual program
designed to inspire students to take an interest in computer science. The students at the E.E Little School participated
in an Hour of Code. Each grade level had
the opportunity to learn to code through games and activities on the Hour of
Code website. Students and families also
worked together to complete a bingo card of at home coding activities.
Digital citizenship is a theme that is revisited in every
project that we do throughout the year, but each fall we spend some time
reviewing how to be a good citizen in school, our community and online. Each grade level focuses on a unique activity. Grade 5 students used the knowledge that they learned from k-4 to make citizenship bookmarks for the younger
students. Students must research, plan
and create a bookmark using Google tools.
The completed bookmarks are then displayed and voted upon. The winning bookmarks are printed and used by
the Little School students each week when they visit the library.
Our #Getintobooks activity is in full swing at the Little School. Students are discovering creative
ways to put themselves into a book. This
experience is allowing them to discover new books in the library, use digital
photography skills such as green screening and forced perspective as well as
summarizing stories to share on Twitter.
