Coding- 6th Grade

Course Outline

Objectives that we cover over the 10 week course period will include:

 

  • Learn the components of a computer, hardware and software.

  • Practice keyboarding skills.

  • Write lines of code to animate characters, draw pictures, and perform many other tasks.

  • Debug programs where there are glitches.

  • Study computer science and how it applies to everyday real world situations.

  • Internet Safety.

  • Virtual Reality programming in Cospaces.

The Cospaces software is what we will be using for a majority of this class.  The students' work will be saved on this program and nearly all of their tests will be taken on here.  The program is relatively user friendly and takes the students on a journey throughout the ten weeks and teaches them many different aspects of coding.
