Hi!  
I am almost ready to rollout a [code.org](http://code.org) community. I took the first PD course a few weeks ago. I intend on teaching [code.org](http://code.org) to grades K-5 on Thursdays. Question, How do I use the curriculum to teach various ages at the same time in the same room? Should I break the room in groups?

All suggestions are appreciated. Thank you!

Did you get any responses? This is the same issue I am having so curious what you are doing.

Great question! I am sure many educators have faced this exact scenario. Before answering, there are a few questions:

- Will students repeat this class?

- Are students CS level similar?

Either way, you might want to consider the Pre-Reader Express and Express courses.
