So, I have been planning for computer science education week at my school site. This event will have a strong focus on the Hour Of Code. A colleague and I have been planning for this event for a while. This is how it all started.....
A couple of weeks ago we got inspired to make this an actual event that would make our students excited. So we decided to go on twitter and do a quick video of two grade levels asking many organizations to come out and code with them. My colleague and I came up with some silly catchy phrases that had to do with the organization we were asking and having the hour of code involved.
So we asked the JV Show from Wild 9.49 to come out and code with us. Our chant was "JV Show for an Hour Of Code!"
The kids shourted it on a video and we got a response that day from the Dj's from that show and it was such a cool experience to have with my colleague and our students. We were then asked to come on the show and promote Hour Of Code.
So not only did we promote our school but we promoted Hour Of Code which is a global event.
