Good evening! My name is Yolanda Gunter and I’m new to this Teaching World of Computer Science Discoveries. I have transitioned from teaching elementary to middle schoolers, 6-8th grade. This current academic school year, I will be teaching coding, which is exciting for me because it’s something new. I am looking forward to learning and experiencing something new.

Hello, my name is Carrie. I teach Iexplore in Middle School for 6th, 7th, and 8th grade students. I have been taking CS Discoveries this fall so I can implement coding into the classroom and tie it into the Career Cluster topics we discuss as well as the choices of pathways for our students to apply for at our Career and Technical Center. I’m most excited to try out the paper prototype app and then follow it up with coding.

Hello,  
I am Lindsey. I am an 8th grade Special Educator. I will teach Unit 3 as part of an after school club, not a classroom setting that meets daily. I am excited to do something entirely different and see student success outside of the core curriculum. I am looking forward to seeing what students are capable of outside of the ELA and math classrooms! I think they will enjoy creating their own games.

Good evening! My name is Eleni and I teach 9th grade Algebra 1. I am also teaching a half-credit CSP course, but have been taking pieces of the CSD curriculum and adding them into the course. We are about to start the Interactive Animations and Games unit and I am really excited to have my students engage with the concepts covered and to see what they create. I am also excited to get into physical/hardware programming in the course I am taking to get my CS endorsement, which has us go through the CSD curriculum.

Hi, my name is Michael Benjamin and I teach 5th through 8th grade Computer Science and Robotics in Providence, RI. I’m excited to roll out this [Code.org](http://Code.org) curriculum with our students. I think that they’ll be very engaged in this material and hopefully it builds up their computer literacy along the way!
