I'm feeling really positive about this school year. I'll be teaching Project Lead the Way Gateway to Technology to seventh and eighth graders for the fourth year. I'm confident that I improve my lessons each year, but I continue to be excited to try new projects and curriculum. I'm considering working in some iPad lessons to increase variations in student presentations and allow for more creativity.
I'm also excited about Coding Club. Last year, I felt we had so many wasted opportunities with our lack of coding resources. With the Apple curriculum this year, we'll have plenty to engage our students! My plan is to offer Coding Club to anyone interested on Thursdays before school, but also offer a Coding Club for girls only on Friday mornings. I had many girls last year express interest, but they did not really stick with the club because they felt uncomfortable around so many boys. I will likely keep my lesson plans similar for both clubs.
