These hands-on, interactive tutorials make learning about computer coding fun and engaging. But that one-hour exploration was as far as we went. The next day we were back to writing literary analysis.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three years later, I decided it was time to go deeper with coding, to incorporate it into a unit that would not just teach my students about coding but would also reinforce what they had been learning in my English class. My first ever three-week coding unit wrapped up our semester in a fun and powerful way, and even had direct connections to our English curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">My students had spent most of the first semester writing their own novels (thanks to \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/2017/06/01/nanowrimo-challenge-helps-students-write-and-publish-in-the-digital-age/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">NaNoWriMo\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">), so they were very familiar with the elements of a story. And although I’m not much of a gamer myself, I do know that video and computer games are usually based on a story: a main character attempts to do something or go somewhere, but encounters obstacles along the way to an ultimate \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">destination. I asked my students to compare the elements of a novel with the elements of a game, and right away they saw the similarities.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[media-credit id=11343 align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"550\"]\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-523955\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-800x623.png\" width=\"550\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-800x623.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-160x125.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-768x598.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-1020x794.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-960x747.png 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-240x187.png 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-375x292.png 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-520x405.png 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames.png 1048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\">[/media-credit]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Next my students \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AgCPcgBTqq_rTCd7YWmr1v8m15ARYTCQP_igl690ndA/edit\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">brainstormed ideas\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> for computer games based on the novel they had just written. Rather than coming up with a brand new idea, their novel plots provided them with developed characters and rich stories for their games. But their games couldn’t be as long or complex as their novels had been, so they had to spend some time narrowing down the adventure for their protagonist, planning for obstacles to be faced, and designing the ultimate “win.” That exercise alone was a valuable part of their ongoing literature study.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">After they shared their game ideas aloud (and got more ideas from their classmates), it was time to introduce them to coding. Thanks to \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://scratch.mit.edu/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scratch\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a free program from MIT that teaches coding through a drag-and-drop interface, even beginners can learn to code animations, games, and interactive stories. We started with a step-by-step guide for \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9my4Lz-q-qLcEVhNm0yRXF5ckk/view?usp=sharing\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">creating a basic game\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> with \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://scratch.mit.edu/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scratch\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. My students worked in pairs or groups (each with their own Chromebook), and I encouraged them to talk to each other as they started learning the vocabulary and logic of Scratch and coding.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although coding may not seem to fit in an English class, my students quickly discovered two similarities: coding is a language with its own vocabulary, and proofreading one’s work is critical. That misplaced semicolon will bring their game to a halt, so coding helps students practice that essential skill of carefully reading over and proofreading their work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once my students completed the practice game and had a plan for their novel-based game, they were ready to start creating in Scratch. In addition to the tutorials on the Hour of Code site, Scratch itself offers \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://scratch.mit.edu/help/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">lots of support\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, allowing students to work at their own pace and continue with their game development at home. As my students coded their games and learned the ins and outs of the program, I stopped them periodically so they could share what they were learning with the class. It was great to see kids becoming experts who could then help their classmates code a more complicated game. Some had so much fun, they chose to stay in at lunch to keep working.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[media-credit id=11343 align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"550\"]\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-523954\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-800x600.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-768x576.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-960x720.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-520x390.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\">[/media-credit]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We wrapped up our coding unit by playing \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XBru_nRK3joO5HDA_PGe58tHpmucLMnIK-JMKHyt5_Y/edit?usp=sharing\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">one another’s games\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and giving feedback via Google Forms that each game designer created for him/herself.

These hands-on, interactive tutorials make learning about computer coding fun and engaging. But that one-hour exploration was as far as we went. The next day we were back to writing literary analysis.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Three years later, I decided it was time to go deeper with coding, to incorporate it into a unit that would not just teach my students about coding but would also reinforce what they had been learning in my English class. My first ever three-week coding unit wrapped up our semester in a fun and powerful way, and even had direct connections to our English curriculum.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">My students had spent most of the first semester writing their own novels (thanks to \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/2017/06/01/nanowrimo-challenge-helps-students-write-and-publish-in-the-digital-age/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">NaNoWriMo\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">), so they were very familiar with the elements of a story. And although I’m not much of a gamer myself, I do know that video and computer games are usually based on a story: a main character attempts to do something or go somewhere, but encounters obstacles along the way to an ultimate \u003c/span>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">destination. I asked my students to compare the elements of a novel with the elements of a game, and right away they saw the similarities.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[media-credit id=11343 align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"550\"]\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-523955\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-800x623.png\" width=\"550\" height=\"428\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-800x623.png 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-160x125.png 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-768x598.png 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-1020x794.png 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-960x747.png 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-240x187.png 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-375x292.png 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames-520x405.png 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/NovelsVSgames.png 1048w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\">[/media-credit]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Next my students \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1AgCPcgBTqq_rTCd7YWmr1v8m15ARYTCQP_igl690ndA/edit\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">brainstormed ideas\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> for computer games based on the novel they had just written. Rather than coming up with a brand new idea, their novel plots provided them with developed characters and rich stories for their games. But their games couldn’t be as long or complex as their novels had been, so they had to spend some time narrowing down the adventure for their protagonist, planning for obstacles to be faced, and designing the ultimate “win.” That exercise alone was a valuable part of their ongoing literature study.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Thanks to \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://scratch.mit.edu/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scratch\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, a free program from MIT that teaches coding through a drag-and-drop interface, even beginners can learn to code animations, games, and interactive stories. We started with a step-by-step guide for \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B9my4Lz-q-qLcEVhNm0yRXF5ckk/view?usp=sharing\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">creating a basic game\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> with \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://scratch.mit.edu/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Scratch\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">. My students worked in pairs or groups (each with their own Chromebook), and I encouraged them to talk to each other as they started learning the vocabulary and logic of Scratch and coding.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Although coding may not seem to fit in an English class, my students quickly discovered two similarities: coding is a language with its own vocabulary, and proofreading one’s work is critical. That misplaced semicolon will bring their game to a halt, so coding helps students practice that essential skill of carefully reading over and proofreading their work.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Once my students completed the practice game and had a plan for their novel-based game, they were ready to start creating in Scratch. In addition to the tutorials on the Hour of Code site, Scratch itself offers \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://scratch.mit.edu/help/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">lots of support\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">, allowing students to work at their own pace and continue with their game development at home. As my students coded their games and learned the ins and outs of the program, I stopped them periodically so they could share what they were learning with the class. It was great to see kids becoming experts who could then help their classmates code a more complicated game. Some had so much fun, they chose to stay in at lunch to keep working.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[media-credit id=11343 align=\"aligncenter\" width=\"550\"]\u003cimg loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-523954\" src=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-800x600.jpg\" width=\"550\" height=\"413\" srcset=\"https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-800x600.jpg 800w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-160x120.jpg 160w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-768x576.jpg 768w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-1020x765.jpg 1020w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-1180x885.jpg 1180w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-960x720.jpg 960w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-240x180.jpg 240w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-375x281.jpg 375w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts-520x390.jpg 520w, https://cdn.kqed.org/wp-content/uploads/sites/38/2017/06/ScratchExperts.jpg 1632w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 550px) 100vw, 550px\">[/media-credit]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We wrapped up our coding unit by playing \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://docs.google.com/document/d/1XBru_nRK3joO5HDA_PGe58tHpmucLMnIK-JMKHyt5_Y/edit?usp=sharing\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">one another’s games\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and giving feedback via Google Forms that each game designer created for him/herself.

So far, I have not needed to create grids with multiple topics, but the ability to do so can be very useful. For example, elementary teachers may want to create different grids for two or three of their subject areas — such as ELA, science and history — and then use each grid to discuss different aspects of that content throughout the year. Students can have discussions with each other on the grids, with other classes studying the same content, or with content experts around the world. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Teachers can try Flipgrid for free with a 30-day trial and one-year subscription costs $65, which is quite reasonable for a tool that brings the world’s voices to your classroom and sends your students’ voices around the world. My school’s PTSA (Parent Teacher Student Association) provides small grants to teachers each year, which has covered my costs. If this is an option at your school, it is worth investigating.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I encourage you to t\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://info.flipgrid.com/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">ry Flipgrid\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and see how easy it is to engage students in rich, meaningful interactions, regardless of age, content or even time zone. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n",

Social science and science teachers can use Flipgrid to connect their students to experts, eyewitnesses and others with expertise about the content they are studying.

So far, I have not needed to create grids with multiple topics, but the ability to do so can be very useful. For example, elementary teachers may want to create different grids for two or three of their subject areas — such as ELA, science and history — and then use each grid to discuss different aspects of that content throughout the year. Students can have discussions with each other on the grids, with other classes studying the same content, or with content experts around the world. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Teachers can try Flipgrid for free with a 30-day trial and one-year subscription costs $65, which is quite reasonable for a tool that brings the world’s voices to your classroom and sends your students’ voices around the world. My school’s PTSA (Parent Teacher Student Association) provides small grants to teachers each year, which has covered my costs. If this is an option at your school, it is worth investigating.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">I encourage you to t\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://info.flipgrid.com/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">ry Flipgrid\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> and see how easy it is to engage students in rich, meaningful interactions, regardless of age, content or even time zone. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

"content": "\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">Parents, children, grandmothers and grandfathers are sitting around a campfire, a table or a hammock, telling stories. I paint this picture in my elementary school classroom each year as we discuss that people have been sharing stories, passed down from generation to generation, since the beginning of recorded time. Whether narratives were humorous, frightening, heart-wrenching or informative, listeners were engrossed. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We’ve come a long way since the days when the stories were told exclusively orally, then later in writing. Today, we can choose from an ever-increasing number of technology-based mediums to tell our tales. And they add to the magic. The glitter. The passion. There is something about the ability of students to\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/W/3/6/\"> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">use technology to tell their stories\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that changes the game.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">After \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/2017/04/18/videoconferencing-magic-in-the-elementary-school-classrom/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">introducing Skype to my students \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">eight years ago, they posed a question. We had concluded a terrific conversation with Robert Kimmel Smith, the author of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The War with Grandpa,\u003c/span>\u003c/i> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">and they asked me if they could publish their own books. “For real!” they exclaimed. I gave it some thought. Why should these nine year olds have to wait until they’re grown up? So, I did a little research and found a terrific website that would allow them to do just that. Publish today!\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003ch3>Book Publishing\u003c/h3>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.storyjumper.com\">\u003cb>Storyjumper\u003c/b>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> allows students to write and design their own stories. It’s easy to use and my students took to it right away. Kids are given the flexibility to decide on all of the elements, from the graphics or photos they’d like to use to the color schemes to the text fonts. One of the favorite extras is that as the pages turn, audio of page turning emerges. It makes it feel like a real book.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">After completing our books, we invited parents in for a writing celebration, and I informed them that they had the option to purchase actual hardcover copies of their child’s project. My students were beaming as their parents issued a collective gasp (true story). \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We were hooked.

I paint this picture in my elementary school classroom each year as we discuss that people have been sharing stories, passed down from generation to generation, since the beginning of recorded time. Whether narratives were humorous, frightening, heart-wrenching or informative, listeners were engrossed. \u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">We’ve come a long way since the days when the stories were told exclusively orally, then later in writing. Today, we can choose from an ever-increasing number of technology-based mediums to tell our tales. And they add to the magic. The glitter. The passion. There is something about the ability of students to\u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"http://www.corestandards.org/ELA-Literacy/W/3/6/\"> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">use technology to tell their stories\u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\"> that changes the game.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">After \u003c/span>\u003ca href=\"https://ww2.kqed.org/education/2017/04/18/videoconferencing-magic-in-the-elementary-school-classrom/\">\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">introducing Skype to my students \u003c/span>\u003c/a>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">eight years ago, they posed a question. We had concluded a terrific conversation with Robert Kimmel Smith, the author of \u003c/span>\u003ci>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">The War with Grandpa,\u003c/span>\u003c/i> \u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">and they asked me if they could publish their own books. “For real!” they exclaimed. I gave it some thought. Why should these nine year olds have to wait until they’re grown up? So, I did a little research and found a terrific website that would allow them to do just that.

It’s easy to use and my students took to it right away. Kids are given the flexibility to decide on all of the elements, from the graphics or photos they’d like to use to the color schemes to the text fonts. One of the favorite extras is that as the pages turn, audio of page turning emerges. It makes it feel like a real book.\u003c/span>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cspan style=\"font-weight: 400\">After completing our books, we invited parents in for a writing celebration, and I informed them that they had the option to purchase actual hardcover copies of their child’s project.
