Fourth Primary 

Our fourth-grade girls have been putting their coding and problem-solving skills to the test! One of our favorite activities was our Peanut Butter and Jelly Coding Challenge. 🥜🍓

Working in groups, the girls had to write a detailed set of steps—or “code”—to explain how to make a peanut butter and jelly sandwich. They quickly discovered that a computer (or sandwich-making teacher!) can only follow exactly what is written. If a step was missing or not specific enough, the sandwich didn’t turn out quite right! This activity taught the girls the importance of being detailed, specific, and precise when creating instructions and writing code.

We are also taking our coding skills into the world of music! 🎵 The girls are learning how to remix songs and create their own versions of popular music. They are exploring how coding and technology can be used as creative tools to express their ideas.

Along with our technology and coding activities, we have been learning about digital citizenship and how to be safe, responsible, and respectful online. The girls are learning the importance of taking breaks from technology, balancing screen time, and remembering that not everything we see online is true. They are developing the skills they need to make thoughtful and responsible choices in the digital world.

We are excited to continue creating, coding, problem-solving, and discovering new ways to use technology! 🚀
