What is the Hour of Code?
• www.code.org
• One-hour introduction to Computer Science• Demystify “coding,” programming, and computer
science• Anyone can learn the basics to be a:
– Programmer– Creator– Inventor

What is the Hour of Code?
• www.code.org
• Anyone Can Learn: 60 second video– https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qYZF6oIZtfc

Georgetown ISD’s Hour of Code
• Georgetown ISD’s Hour of Code Events– http://www.georgetownisd.org/HourOfCode
• Student Success– 4th Grade Boys and Girls Club Hour of Code participant:
“He turned 90 degrees – That’s a right angle!”

Connection Between Math & Computer Science(Programming/Coding)• Computer Science is applied mathematics
• It is possible for students to learn a new mathematical concept through programming
• Programming environments for kids help students represent math concepts visually and allows them to experiment on the representation
• Programming helps students develop problem-solving skills, which translates well into the math classroom

An Hour of Code in Your Math Classroom
• Hour of Code: Teach http://code.org/educate/hoc
• Scratch web-based
• Hopscotch iPad
• Kodable iPad
• Alice install
• And many more options!
![Page 8: Apply Math Concepts PreK - 12 with an Hour of Code](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060107/55499b8db4c90507608b4c79/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Scratch
• Web-based• Grades 3-12• Get Started & Tutorial
– http://scratch.mit.edu/ > Create• Hour of Code Tutorial
– http://scratch.mit.edu/projects/editor/?tip_bar=hoc
• Math Concepts– Degrees, angles– Coordinate plane: x, y coordinates
• David Wees: Learning Math Through Programming– http://davidwees.com/content/learning-math-through-
programming

Scratch
Draws a square
Draws a shape with more sides & a “flower”

Alice
• Install on a Computer• Grades 6-12
![Page 13: Apply Math Concepts PreK - 12 with an Hour of Code](https://reader033.fdocuments.net/reader033/viewer/2022060107/55499b8db4c90507608b4c79/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
Ideas for Implementing an Hour of Code
• Choose an activity & commit an hour of class time. Learn with your students!– Cover Math TEKS and Technology Applications TEKS
• Students continue their Hour of Code projects in a center or when they finish their work
• Find ways for students to demonstrate math understanding by coding it– Word problems
– Projects

More Resources for Connecting Math & Programming
• Bootstrap http://www.bootstrapworld.org/– A curriculum that educates students in algebra and
computer programming simultaneously
