Dinosaurs and Coding

Last week was Hour of Code week.  Since we have just gotten our iPads ready for use I thought this would be a perfect week to let the students explore a coding app.  Since I was seeing primary classes, I selected Daisy the Dinosaur by Hopscotch Technologies.  It was perfect for introducing the  kids to computer programming.  They loved it!

While we didn’t have a full hour to code, the students really liked giving Daisy commands and watching her complete the program.   They loved showing each other what they created.

 

Look what I did!

Look what I did!

We will definitely be playing more with coding.
