Literacy – the Original Code: Cracking the K-8 Curriculum

Wed. June 10, 2026 | 8:30 am - 2:30 pm CDT

What if the secret to mastering Computer Science (CS) wasn’t hidden in a screen or behind fancy terminology—but was already living inside your favorite classroom read-aloud? Join us for this hands-on, interactive session where we bridge the gap between ELA and Computer Science. This isn’t “one more thing” on your plate; instead, it’s the key to increasing student engagement, sharpening computational thinking, and helping students construct deep meaning through a literacy lens. You’ll leave with ready-to-use activities for your K-8 classroom, a boost in your own CS confidence, and the tools to easily weave these two worlds together.
