December 5-11 is Computer Science in Education Week. Over the past few years, schools across Davidson County have participated in various ways. But as school librarians, how can we make this apply to what we do? School librarians are uniquely positioned to reach every student in the school helping them access the information and technology they need to be globally competitive.
I've been asked how teaching coding fits in with teaching standards. The Information and Technology Standards from NCDPI (last updated in 2009) don't really apply, however if you check out the ISTE standards for students released just this year, teaching coding makes much more sense.

We're so excited about the hour of coding next week. I gave my 5th graders a "sneak peek" at what we're going to be doing, and they can't wait! The activities at the website are great!!
