Day 41: Coding in Kindergarten


Today a group of kindergarten students at Lions Oval Public School explored with Dash the Robot (who they affectionately named Dunk)!


It didn’t take long before these curious kinders were wondering… How fast does he go? Will he dance? How far will he go?  Using the Go App to drive Dunk, they tested his speed. Then they decided to guess how far Dunk would go by estimating and then counting the number of steps he moved from the iPad.

The laughter could be heard down the hallway as they used the Blockly coding app to teach Dunk how to dance!

If you’re intersted in learning more about coding or how to get started in your classroom, check out our SCDSB coding blog: http://scdsbcode.blogspot.ca/.


Thank you to Elodie, Charmaine and Melisa for welcoming Dunk and I into your classroom!

  1. The education of assignment writing services in kids are considered more important now a day . The children should get effective education from the institutes to make their bright future and also polish the abilities in the education field.

  2. Children never want to be picked on or different so I understand why your daughter might feel like that.
    But you must teach her that essayshark review she is beautiful the way she is and that she is actually special because she is different. Try to expose her to different races of people and show her that everyone is different and special.
