Douglass Update – May the Fourth Be with You

It was another excellent week with the kids as we talked about functions in terms of skills, and used functions to make a craft (a Jingle Bell), and then talked about functions in terms of songwriting (the chorus of a song is like a function) and used our jingle bells to sing Jingle Bells!

The group did a couple lessons on Code.org, and some of the kids had prior coding experience so they rocked out the lessons! A few kids needed a extra help, but since we had a smaller group we were able to do more one-on-one work.

The kids came up with some really cool stuff on App Lab! We’ve got one kid working on an app that has an image of Obi Wan from Star Wars that changes size when clicked and says “May the force be with you.” Although, perhaps today it should be “the fourth.”
