Dear Riverview Families,
We all dream of a bright future for our children. In today's technology-driven world, their success will increasingly depend on understanding how technology works.
That's why our school is excited to join the largest learning event in history: The Hour of Code, during Computer Science Education Week (December 9-15). With over 100 million students worldwide participating, the Hour of Code is a powerful way to prepare our students with essential 21st-century skills. We actually take it a little further and extend Hour of Code through the month of December. We want to give your children an opportunity to learn things like basic coding concepts, problem-solving skills, and collaboration and teamwork, which will help them in many dynamic and professional fields in the future.
We want to make our Hour of Code event at Riverview truly impactful. To do this, we need your help! Please have conversations with your children about what they are doing in Tech Class. Have them log in and show you what "coding" looks like in their grade. It will have a big impact on helping to instill the importance of technology in our world.
This is our chance to make a real difference in the future of education at Riverview. For more details visit hourofcode.com...maybe try a project of two yourself!
Let's prepare our children for a brighter future together!
