Hour of Code 2023
The Nationally recognized Hour of Code Event will take place Dec 4th - 10th but here at Red Lion, we don't limit ourselves to just that week. You can hold an "Hour of Code" at any time that will fit your instructional schedule. The links below will hopefully provide you with the information you need to host an Hour of Code Event with your classes.
You may be wondering,
"What can I do for an Hour of Code activity with my classes?"
First time hosting an Hour of Code with your classes?
I would love to come in and work with your students to do an introduction or you can check out this resource Hour of Code Hyperdoc I found this to be very comprehensive with a focused offering of activities and content as well as independent and blended content.
Hosted before but could use some updated resources...
