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.

The coding "challenge journal” has been tested with students in grades 4-7. Each task provided students with enough challenge that the tasks could be completed in two 40-50 minute periods. Students are asked reflective questions in each of the tasks.

This unit connects learning with technology to Social Studies. This is perfect for technology class or for use in a Social Studies or History classroom that wants to incorporate technology with a lesson. No download is required to use Canva (www.canva.com) - a free product, making it easy for teachers who are not able to download software on classroom computers to still give their students a choice in learning. Options for using Microsoft PowerPoint or Google slides are also included, if the teacher prefers this option.

In this lesson, students are provided with a quick tutorial, as well as links to other resources to help them with their project. The tutorial is intended to help students get started with the program and then use the resources within the program to refine their creations. Students create a presentation about a topic of interest related to the Progressive Era from a provided list after researching the topic. They use that information along with graphics, pictures and backgrounds from the Internet and also supplied in Prezi, to create a finished presentation that explains their topic, and add their own opinions and insights to the project.

This is an excellent creative project to add to a unit on the Progressive Era. The project was created for grades 7-8 but could easily be used with upper elementary or high school students.

This lesson is great for distance learning/remote learning. You can upload it to your school's learning management system (Google Classroom, Edmodo, Canvas, etc.) or share with students via Google Drive.

This engaging educational resource simplifies cloud computing for young learners and beginners, transforming abstract tech concepts into relatable, everyday examples. Using clear language and vibrant analogies (like an "invisible sky cloud" for data storage), it covers:

Key Concepts Taught:

• Definition: Storing/using data online instead of on local devices.
• How It Works: Requests sent to remote servers in data centers.
• Benefits: Access files anywhere, save device space, easy sharing.
• Security: Importance of strong passwords and privacy.
• Real-World Uses: Saving photos, streaming movies, school/business collaboration.

Interactive Learning Tools:

• Multiple-choice & True/False Questions – Reinforce basics (e.g., "Files are stored on servers, not your computer").
• Short Answer & Open-Ended Prompts – Encourage reflection ("How would life change without cloud computing?").
• Fill-in-the-Blanks & Vocabulary Matching – Solidify terms like servers, data centers, and devices.
• Creative Activity – Kids draw their own "cloud" and describe its uses.
• Answer Key – Supports self-checking or teaching.

Perfect For:

• Ages 8–14 – Aligns with STEM curricula or tech literacy programs.
• Teachers – Ready-to-use worksheets for classrooms.
• Parents – Fun, screen-free introduction to digital concepts.

Why It Stands Out:

• Kid-Centric Approach: Compares cloud computing to familiar actions (e.g., saving photos online).
• Safety Focus: Teaches cybersecurity habits early.
• Future-Ready Skills: Prepares kids for a tech-driven world.

Theme: "The internet isn’t just for games—it’s a powerful tool that works like magic!"
