Barb- I thought I sent the Presentations Committee a message saying Ivan could do the Feb. meeting for us on Coding, and sent him the message below. In my message to Presentations, I also listed some topics on coding (see message to Ivan) and asked for input on whether they liked the list or had other topics they'd like covered. The only reply I got from Presentation was from Mike Hancock, who said he was especially interested in how the coding class material was applied (used).

Ivan...Presentations Committee would be delighted to have you come for the February 27th General Meeting (dinner with us beforehand) and talk about Coding. I sent the Committee the suggested topics to cover and asked for their input.  So far only 1 reply, who was especially interested in how they apply the things they learn. Feel free to let me know what you would or would not like to cover and any other topics you would like to add. It'll be great to have you with us again. Also, Kathy Hunsicker said something about the Library's having a Children's librarian who organizes the Teen Program.  Is it correct that she runs or started a Coding for Girls program there?  Do you want to have her come too?  No pressure to do so, just wondering. Babette Topics on Coding I thought of:What are the kids learning in all these "coding" classes and programs

There is a group out of Mill Valley that has been getting national attention.

Does he know about this group? If not, why don't you also get somebody from http://www.mvgate.org/ <http://www.mvgate.org/> This group has been teaching 1st graders in Marin since 2014. 

Here is a Marin IJ article about their 2014 event: ( James Gafford and I were at the 2014 event at the Marin County Office of Education, when they taught in an hour 1st graders how to code. Since then the group has been getting national attention.)

In addition, some 30 school districts, including New York City and Chicago, have agreed to add coding classes in the fall, mainly in high schools but in lower grades, too. And policy makers in nine states have begun awarding the same credits for computer science classes that they do for basic math and science courses, rather than treating them as electives.

Barb- I thought I sent the Presentations Committee a message saying Ivan could do the Feb. meeting for us on Coding, and sent him the message below. In my message to Presentations, I also listed some topics on coding (see message to Ivan) and asked for input on whether they liked the list or had other topics they'd like covered. The only reply I got from Presentation was from Mike Hancock, who said he was especially interested in how the coding class material was applied (used).

Ivan...Presentations Committee would be delighted to have you come for the February 27th General Meeting (dinner with us beforehand) and talk about Coding. I sent the Committee the suggested topics to cover and asked for their input.  So far only 1 reply, who was especially interested in how they apply the things they learn. Feel free to let me know what you would or would not like to cover and any other topics you would like to add. It'll be great to have you with us again. Also, Kathy Hunsicker said something about the Library's having a Children's librarian who organizes the Teen Program.  Is it correct that she runs or started a Coding for Girls program there?  Do you want to have her come too?  No pressure to do so, just wondering. Babette Topics on Coding I thought of:What are the kids learning in all these "coding" classes and programs
What should adults know about coding to understand it.- are there classes or resources for adult to learn something about coding? (Ivan has already told me he could cover this one).
How can you apply what you learn in a coding class
Is coding the same as programming
WHAT DO YOU WANT HIM TO COVER AND SHOULD WE IGNORE ANY OF THE ABOVE?

There is a group out of Mill Valley that has been getting national attention.

Does he know about this group? If not, why don't you also get somebody from http://www.mvgate.org/ <http://www.mvgate.org/> This group has been teaching 1st graders in Marin since 2014. 

Here is a Marin IJ article about their 2014 event: ( James Gafford and I were at the 2014 event at the Marin County Office of Education, when they taught in an hour 1st graders how to code. Since then the group has been getting national attention.)

Since December, 20,000 teachers from kindergarten through 12th grade have introduced coding lessons, according to Code.org <http://code.org/>, a group backed by the tech industry that offers free curriculums. In addition, some 30 school districts, including New York City and Chicago, have agreed to add coding classes in the fall, mainly in high schools but in lower grades, too. And policy makers in nine states have begun awarding the same credits for computer science classes that they do for basic math and science courses, rather than treating them as electives.

Barb- I thought I sent the Presentations Committee a message saying Ivan could do the Feb. meeting for us on Coding, and sent him the message below. In my message to Presentations, I also listed some topics on coding (see message to Ivan) and asked for input on whether they liked the list or had other topics they'd like covered.

Ivan...Presentations Committee would be delighted to have you come for the February 27th General Meeting (dinner with us beforehand) and talk about Coding. I sent the Committee the suggested topics to cover and asked for their input.  So far only 1 reply, who was especially interested in how they apply the things they learn. Feel free to let me know what you would or would not like to cover and any other topics you would like to add. It'll be great to have you with us again. Also, Kathy Hunsicker said something about the Library's having a Children's librarian who organizes the Teen Program.  Is it correct that she runs or started a Coding for Girls program there?  Do you want to have her come too?  No pressure to do so, just wondering. Babette Topics on Coding I thought of:What are the kids learning in all these "coding" classes and programs
What should adults know about coding to understand it.- are there classes or resources for adult to learn something about coding? (Ivan has already told me he could cover this one).
How can you apply what you learn in a coding class
Is coding the same as programming
WHAT DO YOU WANT HIM TO COVER AND SHOULD WE IGNORE ANY OF THE ABOVE?

There is a group out of Mill Valley that has been getting national attention.

Does he know about this group? If not, why don't you also get somebody from http://www.mvgate.org/ <http://www.mvgate.org/> This group has been teaching 1st graders in Marin since 2014. 

Here is a Marin IJ article about their 2014 event: ( James Gafford and I were at the 2014 event at the Marin County Office of Education, when they taught in an hour 1st graders how to code. Since then the group has been getting national attention.)

Since December, 20,000 teachers from kindergarten through 12th grade have introduced coding lessons, according to Code.org <http://code.org/>, a group backed by the tech industry that offers free curriculums. In addition, some 30 school districts, including New York City and Chicago, have agreed to add coding classes in the fall, mainly in high schools but in lower grades, too. And policy makers in nine states have begun awarding the same credits for computer science classes that they do for basic math and science courses, rather than treating them as electives.

Barb- I thought I sent the Presentations Committee a message saying Ivan could do the Feb. meeting for us on Coding, and sent him the message below. In my message to Presentations, I also listed some topics on coding (see message to Ivan) and asked for input on whether they liked the list or had other topics they'd like covered. The only reply I got from Presentation was from Mike Hancock, who said he was especially interested in how the coding class material was applied (used).

Ivan...Presentations Committee would be delighted to have you come for the February 27th General Meeting (dinner with us beforehand) and talk about Coding. I sent the Committee the suggested topics to cover and asked for their input.  So far only 1 reply, who was especially interested in how they apply the things they learn. Feel free to let me know what you would or would not like to cover and any other topics you would like to add. It'll be great to have you with us again. Also, Kathy Hunsicker said something about the Library's having a Children's librarian who organizes the Teen Program.  Is it correct that she runs or started a Coding for Girls program there?  Do you want to have her come too?  No pressure to do so, just wondering. Babette Topics on Coding I thought of:What are the kids learning in all these "coding" classes and programs

There is a group out of Mill Valley that has been getting national attention.

Does he know about this group? If not, why don't you also get somebody from http://www.mvgate.org/ <http://www.mvgate.org/> This group has been teaching 1st graders in Marin since 2014. 

Here is a Marin IJ article about their 2014 event: ( James Gafford and I were at the 2014 event at the Marin County Office of Education, when they taught in an hour 1st graders how to code. Since then the group has been getting national attention.)

In addition, some 30 school districts, including New York City and Chicago, have agreed to add coding classes in the fall, mainly in high schools but in lower grades, too. And policy makers in nine states have begun awarding the same credits for computer science classes that they do for basic math and science courses, rather than treating them as electives.

&#65533;I&#65533;m a little afraid he&#65533;s falling behind,&#65533; his mother, Wendy Lisle, said, explaining why they had signed up for the class at Strawberry Point Elementary School.
The event was part of a national educational movement in computer coding instruction that is growing at Internet speeds.

And policy makers in nine states have begun awarding the same credits for computer science classes that they do for basic math and science courses, rather than treating them as electives.
There are after-school events, too, like the one in Mill Valley, where 70 parents and 90 children, from kindergartners to fifth graders, huddled over computers solving animated puzzles to learn the basics of computer logic.
