After minimal Coding Club participation in the fall, we decided to rebrand to Girls Who Code starting in January 2020. I had a few students who were immediately interested and came to check it out. We brought out the iPads and Spheros to explore before giving them their first coding challenge. After they began to feel comfortable with the functions and movement of the robots, we laid out a map of our school and challenged the students to code their way through their school day schedule. They found the activity to be frustrated, rewarding, and fun. They students communicated commands and collaborated on how to guide the Spheros to their intended destinations. They even explored extra features, such as the lights and sounds. All the students left excited to come back to our next meeting. I'm feeling positive and hopeful for where this club will go!
