Tech Tuesday on Wednesday

Today we explored some more coding and programming through different technology. We know this is NOT Tuesday like we usually do but we had to work with when the kits were available ;) 

We sure do love to explore the different activities and get really involved. This might be the quietest and focused these little people are when you challenge them to code! They love making things work and sharing their achievements with their classmates! 

We have been working with OSMO Pizza Co., Coding Jam, Coding Adventures to Awbie, Tangrams, Letters and Numbers. Today, we also had special kits come called Matalab where there is a robot to code and with specific challenges. Half the class was working on the Matalab kits and half on their choice of OSMO activities. 

They are learning executive functioning skills, problem solving skills, critical thinking, and building perseverance as they challenge their own thinking. It amazes me what these little people can do when they take risks and just explore through these activities.
