New here and to teaching coding for K-5. My school requires that we hang anchor charts. Before I create my own, I was wondering if anyone has found a resource for anchor charts where simple code.org blocks are displayed in sequence to show basic skills. I’ve searched TPT but have only found vocabulary and activities for code.org.
Hi there,
I started teaching this about the same time as you did, I have been unsuccessful in finding anchor charts, good definitions for kiddos, I have started making my own. So far all of mine are for the middle school grade levels. With that said, I was just finally able to be in a room, up until 11/2024 I was teaching from a cart. While that doesn’t seem to bad, I am teaching grades 3-8 in two buildings. Check this link for anything that may help you. Google Drive Folder
Hey Josh! Thanks for sharing your folder but for some reason the Google Drive Folder link takes me back to this message thread…not sure why.
I am so sorry, I have not been using the Forum for very long, chances are it was my fault that the link didn’t work.
Here is a direct link, (https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1_FZQytJuzHPjfhjxtSKgnuGQ-xQi4Ygo?usp=sharing) Iam still in progress of making items for this as this is only year 2 of me teaching technology prior to that i did nine years teaching 4th, five years at 5th, four years BSI math, and now technology teacher.
Got it now! Thanks so much!
As I move through K-6 coding and robotics, it would be so nice to have a visual resource for students that identifies the block type, function, and image. This is my first time posting and I’m not sure how to reach a code.org moderator to see if the site itself has this resource.
@joshg what you’ve created is a nice jumping off point in the even that these materials need to be created. Thank you so much for sharing.
That is why I started creating it, I have a lot more I want to do with it. However, time is my enemy. I am hoping to have more free time next semester in order to make more of those block slides.
I created I CAN statements from Courses B, C, & D on code.org. They’re here if you’d like to make a copy: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1DFDt4CKGTMZOCYMJGUm6C_GhgQ6WnE_W?usp=sharing
(I believe they are from older versions of the courses so you may need to edit as needed).
Thank you so much that would be fantastic. Now I need to create some good stuff to share back with you.
