SUMMARY:The Triple-Threat Toolkit: Powering ELA and Math with Computer Science (ROE 35)
DESCRIPTION:Through unplugged activities and creative endeavors\, learn how to differentiate instruction so learners can access high-level thinking. \nThe Triple-Threat Toolkit: Powering ELA and Math with Computer Science\nComputational Thinking (CT) is the secret to engaging students and unlocking critical thinking in ELA and Math. Join this hands-on session to bridge literacy\, numeracy\, and Computer Science. You’ll find that CT is a mindset\, not just coding\, perfect for small-group rotations and hands-on stations. \nThrough unplugged activities and creative endeavors\, we will show you how to differentiate instruction so learners (K-8) can access high-level thinking. We will explore effective pedagogies and tools to empower all learners to thrive\, aligning with research that shows CS increases critical thinking and problem-solving grit. Leave with a “brain power” toolkit and strategies to naturally integrate these three subjects into your daily instruction.
