Our scholars spent more than just an hour this week learning about coding and practicing their new skills. All of the students enjoyed this activity and all of them were curious to see just how much more they could do. Ask your scholar what interesting applications coding has that they didn't know about before this week. Then ask them to show you something that they learned about.
The most definite path to knowledge is through discovery. This past week our scholars began their journey to explore how electricity worked. They explored ways to create different types of circuits and they tested multiple types of materials for conductivity. The scholars were intrigued by the simplicity of such an important form of energy. Next week we will use this knowledge to create our Holiday cards to support the Heifer International charity. The cards will be lit up using a circuit that the scholars create.
