Hey there, I am Sara Hsiang taking on a new curriculum for grade 7. We are supposed to do 5 units in a semester (problem solving, web development, interactive games animations, design, data), meeting about 200 minutes per week. I was pretty excited by the intro video, especially about providing equity to my students now and for their future possibilities.
