Boone first graders have been learning the basics behind computer science with programming activities from Code.org. It is a free online learning platform for students in grades k-8 which introduces students to the principles behind computer programming. Aligned with common core standards in science, math, language arts, and 21st century skills, these lessons give children a chance to collaborate as they problem solve and use critical thinking skills. Unaware of all this valuable learning, these students simply loved the chance to solve the online puzzles that accompany each lesson.
