K-2 Computer Science Curriculum
Unrestricted Use
Public Domain
Rating
0.0 stars

SFUSD's creative computing curriculum introduces computer science as a creative, collaborative, and engaging discipline to children in kindergarten through second grade.

Across 4 units and 15-20 lessons, students will learn about algorithms and programming, computing systems, the Internet, and impacts of computing, while developing strong practices and dispositions. Lessons are designed to be implemented in 45 to 60-minute periods approximately once per week.

There are three levels available and a flow chart to help you decide where your students should start!

Just because students are young doesn't mean they can't code! Get them started today.

Kindergarten All About Me UBD - Sarah Zanidean
Conditional Remix & Share Permitted
CC BY-NC-SA
Rating
0.0 stars

Students created an “all about me” book as a summative assessment from various lessons that I taught as part of an "all about me" UBD. We had many books and videos learning about others, and themselves, they also brought various items for show and tell, etc. The focus was more on writing or drawing pictures as part of a book for the final assessment of the UBD. I thought it would be way better to do a small page and use Aurasma instead of creating a booklet. Now that I think about it- a booklet seems pretty outdated, but at the time, it seemed like a good final assessment to wrap up the unit.
Students would be filling in the page I have attached to this document (or use a different template), and then creating a video through the Aurasma app to talk more about themselves. This incorporates some of the 7 C’s by allowing students to be innovative, and emphasize communication by using technology and developing digital technologies. I think this is more innovative in terms of assessing and allows for teaching 21st century skills in a Kindergarten setting. The picture can hang in the classroom, but when using the Aurasma app, parents, teachers and students can access their video by scanning the photo using the app. The rubric was made with smiley faces- sad, neutral, happy, I would keep this rubric the same, it’s easy for students to understand.

LIVE Code - Focus on Pattern Recognition (Grade 4-6)
Rating
0.0 stars

"In this 45-minute broadcast, students will explore the computational thinking skill of pattern recognition.

Pattern Recognition occurs when you can identify patterns. When you identify patterns, you can create rules that allow actions to be repeated automatically. Pattern recognition can also improve how quickly a problem can be solved."

The teacher's guide walks you through exactly how to use the broadcast in your classroom.

As part of their reporting process, they are required to report on participation and impact of our programs. If you could please take a moment to complete the following short survey with your students, it would be greatly appreciated. To access the survey, please visit : CanCode 2.0 (please copy and paste this web address into your browser) https://ccyouth.questionpro.ca/

LIVE Code - Testing and Evaluating: Grades 4-6
Rating
0.0 stars

In this 45-minute broadcast, students will explore the computational thinking skill of testing and evaluating.

Testing involves trying something and observing what happens.Evaluation is about using critical thinking and judgment to determine if a set of criteria are met. If not, then correction or improvement may be required. Computer programming tends to be an interactive process in which testing and evaluating are constantly occurring.

A teacher guide is also included.

Learn Like an Influencer Template - from Ditch That Textbook
Rating
0.0 stars

"Social media influencers often make a plan when creating their content. Your students can show what they've learned by following the same content creation plan that their favorite influencers use! This template walks them through the steps -- and focuses on helping them show what they know from your class."

Note: This is the PLAN to make posts; students do not need to actually have access to these platforms to do this (and shouldn't without parental permission!)

Assignment is available in PPT and Google Slides.

Learning Technology Inspires Children's Education at Home and in Schools
Rating
0.0 stars

Next Generation Learning is a government campaign initiated by Becta. We aim to use technology to create a more exciting, rewarding and successful experience for learners of all ages and abilities. This enables everyone to achieve their potential and achieve much more. The facts speak for themselves:

• 85% of secondary school learners believe that technology makes it easier to do homework.
• 85% of primary school learners believe that technology makes learning more interesting.

All of this is likely to mean improved GCSE grades and more children moving into higher education. Despite this, only one in four schools is currently using technology to its full potential. Help us to change that by Getting Involved.

This site contains lots of useful information about how technology is used in the classroom, and for studying at home and how to learn safely online.
