So excited to see this in action at @CaldwellStreet this week. Thanks for the amazing support Ms Penfold and @CCiocio @UC_ITS @jeremychobbs and for the fantastic inspiration from Scratch Conference 2018 at MIT that lead to this work. Can’t wait for 2020!
In this month's Minute with Mitch, @mres describes how Scratch can be used in all classes, in all parts of the curriculum: "Students aren’t just learning to code, they’re coding to learn." #scratchinpractice
