HOUR OF CODE WEEK
December 4-10, 2023 & BEYOND!
What is Hour of Code?
Hour of Code is a worldwide movement organized by Code.org to expose as many students as possible to computer programming. This year tens of millions of participants in 180+ countries are participating and tutorials have been created in over 45 different languages for students of all ages.
St. Joseph Catholic School has participated for the last eleven years and we are registered again for this year! Students will be introduced to activities during Media Class this week while being encouraged to explore other activities on their own at home. The links below will provide additional information and coding options for all grades and levels of expertise.
