We had a great coding session with the children this morning. The research behind coding is very exciting and interesting as can be seen in the article below. http://www.educatoronline.com.au/news/students-hungry-for-code-research-shows-200368.aspx They have been assigned a task to complete for next week which is great. Today they learnt how to access their google accounts and they use this to log in to Tynker. Their e mail address is their first name and first letter of their last name@stu.silverdale.school.nz Example: gavinc@stu.silverdale.school.nz As a school we monitor these e mail addresses through our rigorous online management programme. Children can follow this link to get onto tynker. https://www.tynker.com/school/ They are doing so well and are loving this experience.
