Coding for computers and tablets.

STEAM initiatives are supported with this package.

This resource is a great starting of place for those that would like to incorporate coding into their STEAM/STEM or technology lessons.

This resource includes 5 different "stations" that could be done as a whole class activity, or more like traditional ELL and math learning centres.

There are two reading pages included to help students better understand binary coding and block coding.
