Expanding Coding Lessons with Osmo

This week in the Library STEAM Center, students were able to gather ideas from what they learned last week and apply it to the Osmo gaming system through Coding with Awbie.  "Osmo Coding Awbie uses hands-on physical blocks to control Awbie, a playful character who loves delicious strawberries. Each block is a coding command that directs Awbie on a wondrous tree-shaking, strawberry-munching adventure. Coding Awbie teaches problem-solving and logic skills."

Students were also given the opportunity to get back onto http://www.code.org to further explore and expand their knowledge using Hour of Code activities.  Many students completed coding games and were able to print and take home completion certificates.  I encourage students to continue to enjoy these activities at home through our Library STEAM Center website.  

What a fun month in the Library STEAM Center!  Code-On!!
