December Offline Coding Activity
One of my favorite parts of the year is Hour of Code.
Being out of the classroom this year I was disappointed, but then decided I could still be a part of the fun by creating an offline activity. Below is the PDF of the lesson to print and a slideshow to use in teaching.
