This year, Mrs Mundy is teaching a coding class first period. In this class, students will have one project per semester. Though most students in the class did not want it, Mrs. Mundy has been trying to keep them entertained and engaged. The latest assignment the class had was to build a storage box for their semester project. Each box was to be about the size of a shoebox. Students were also allowed to decorate their boxes. Some had drawn silly pictures, leopard print, cow print, Batman, etc. After a little over a week, the boxes were finished and ready for their project!
The company will be sending DAHS a variety of things. Some of those include a 3D printer, circuits, and also providing all other necessary equipment. Ondrea Calvin, a coding student, was asked about her concerns for the class: “I think it’s a good idea, but I’m worried about how hard it will be.”
Students were told to make an account on Scratch. Scratch can help students learn some basic block coding. The simplicity of it should make Scratch easy for students to use.
It’s an exciting opportunity for Mrs. Mundy's coding class! Hopefully the finished projects will be just as cool too.
