If you are looking for an easy way to get kids started with computer programming look no further!

How I Use It

I have used Code.org with three different levels of learners. 1) High School students in a introductory programming course who had no previous programming experience. Code.org got them hooked on Python programming and I ended up buying them all subscriptions to GROK.org. 2) Middle School students who wanted to get a taste of programming. It kept them engaged for the few class periods we had to spend on the site and excited enough of them that we now have a Middle School programming club led by the students. 3) Lower School students in grades 4 and 5. The exercises were just enough to get them excited about programming. We do not allow our students to play computer games but this has taken the place of learning games for this group of students. Many have gone on to dig deeper into programming in Scratch.
