Our district supported solution for teaching coding is: CodeHS.  Our premium CodeHS licenses include a browser based version of Scratch.. See this document for INSTRUCTIONS about student accounts.
Using CodeHSÂ (and its integrated Scratch) platform to create projects not only builds foundational computer science and coding skills, but promotes creativity and deeper learning. Â
Plan to spend about 1/3 of your instruction doing coding activities.
Try to complete at least 6Â of the lessons listed for each grade level.
Encourage creativity instead of just replication.
Work with classroom teachers to integrate.
Additionally, you can ask your building tech to install Scratch 3.0. on your lab computers. This downloaded application is an alternative if the internet is down. You can download the application to your computer at this link:Â Scratch 3.0.Download
