The Triple-Threat Toolkit: Powering ELA and Math with Computer Science

The Triple-Threat Toolkit: Powering ELA and Math with Computer Science
Computational Thinking (CT) is the secret to engaging students and unlocking critical thinking in ELA and Math. Join this hands-on session to bridge literacy, numeracy, and Computer Science. You'll find that CT is a mindset, not just coding, perfect for small-group rotations and hands-on stations.
Through unplugged activities and creative endeavors, we will show you how to differentiate instruction so learners (K-8) can access high-level thinking. We will explore effective pedagogies and tools to empower all learners to thrive, aligning with research that shows CS increases critical thinking and problem-solving grit. Leave with a "brain power" toolkit and strategies to naturally integrate these three subjects into your daily instruction.

Lunch will be included.
