Calling all Grade 3-6 Classes at Rotherglen School!
Looking for computer science and coding lessons that can be implemented into all subject areas? We’ve got something for you, and no experience with computer programming or CS First is required!
We want to be your co-teacher for an hour and a half!
Your journey begins on Tuesday, September 28th, 2021 from 10:00am to 11:00am where you and your students will learn the importance of Computer Science and coding and meet Real Life Googlers!
Then, join us again on September 29th from 10:00am to 10:30am when we’ll dive into the Music & Sound CS First Activity, which is aligned to the Ontario Math Curriculum! No coding experience is required – talk about making it easy.
Still worried you’ll need support? We’ve got you covered. We’ll be available on September 28th from 7:00pm-7:30pm to help answer any questions you may have getting rolling with CS First.
What is a co-taught lesson anyway? Find out more here!
You've got questions, we've got answers
Yes! For the best experience, we suggest that each student has their own device, connected to the internet for the duration of the lesson.
Chromebooks, or other laptops, are preferred for the best user experience.
Nope – that would be a lot of work and we’re all about saving you time!
Please just register the educators of your class (teacher, EA, support staff, etc.)
Please do not register your students.
Nothing! We want to keep all student information private and will never ask you to share it with us.
During the livestream lesson, we’ll be using an interactive form. The form only has two questions:
- Your first name (or your teacher’s name – and optional!)
- Your answer to the question asked
This allows us to interact with your class, while keeping their personal information safe.
You sure can! We’ll send you information closer to the date of the co-taught lesson to help you get all set up.
Before the Tuesday lesson, you have no prep to do! After the first lesson, you’ll receive an email from us with instructions on how to set up for the Thursday lesson. Remember, we also have Wednesday evening Office Hours to get all of your questions answered.
Your coding adventure kicks off on Tuesday, September 28th at 10am!
*Teacher registration only please!
