MATH + CODING, 1-8
SELF-SERVE WORKSHOPS

Designed to serve as a base lesson plan — a set of activities to select from and adapt — for diverse learning settings (f2f, hybrid, online, parents/children).
- Grades 1-2: geometric/motion patterns & rules; sequential & concurrent events
- Grades 3-4: shapes, angles, repeating patterns, variables; repeating & nested events
- Grades 5-6: algebraic expressions, inequalities; conditional statements
- Grades 7-8: linear/non-linear relationships; sub-programs, code efficiency, data analysis
