Library System: Washington County Free Library
Top 3 things learned:
- Teaching Circuits, like the "Squishy Circuits" we made out of Play Dough and 9 volt batteries and LED lights, is a great way to help children grasp the logic and concepts behind computer code.
- There are a lot of games to help kids grasp coding as Blocks of Coding Language.
- Having mini-computers, like the Arduino, make it easier to understand the working "guts" of the computers, which also help kids learn to code.
How to implement:
We will definitely be offering some of the coding programming at our library soon, like the LED and conductive thread bookmarks and some more of the great coding resources.
Additional learning:
Can't wait to get more time playing around with the Arduino.
