This week the 5th graders spent time thinking about what computers are and how they fit into their lives.  To kick off the conversation the students watched a short video clip produced by the non-profit foundation,Code.org. They believe that EVERY student in EVERY school should learn computer science. 
After watching the film the 5th graders shared their impressions of the film and of computer science.  
  • "The closest you can get to having a super power is to be a programmer"
  • "Programming opens doors"
  • "You can open your mind, do whatever you can think and imagine, and you can do this through computer programming"
  • "Programming can help you with math and science"
Wow, I don't know about you, but I think I want to learn to "code"!
