My background includes an Associate Degree in Business Management and 4 years working for Central Trust Bank.\u00a0 Then, I got my Bachelor of Science in Education for Elementary Education grades 1-8.\u00a0 I also have a Master\u2019s Degree in Curriculum and Instruction.\u00a0 After 18 years of teaching Math, I decided to make a change.\u00a0 I\u2019ve been teaching Robotics for the last 9 years.\u00a0 I use the Lego Education program called Lego Mindstorms<\/em>.\u00a0 When the pandemic hit, I had to find online lessons that matched ours.\u00a0 When I found CodeMonkey, I fell in love with the program, especially since it\u2019s similar to Lego programming.\u00a0 We finally purchased a site license for CodeMonkey for the last 2 years.\u00a0 I am so grateful.\u00a0 It has helped my students become better coders, for sure!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

My Robotics curriculum is Lego Mindstorms. But, CodeMonkey was added to the curriculum last year, per my request. I needed something for the students that supported the coding\/programming of our robots. And, CodeMonkey was and is the answer. Students learn different types of lego commands during a lesson that is done with the whole class. They use that lesson to complete projects with their robots. For instance, this week, I taught the students how to use the \u201cMove Tank\u201d command, which is a command with split axles and 2 power settings. We practiced and programmed the robot to drive straight, forward & backward, make small, 90 degree turns, do large, rounded turns and zero turn spins. They use that lesson, with notes, to complete the Figure 8 project. They have to program the robot to make a figure 8 around and under their chair, without hitting any of the legs. Once they are finished with the project, they complete the rubric with the exit slip, they get their project graded and they work on their CodeMonkey lessons that are assigned for this quarter. My students are figuring out commands that I haven\u2019t taught them yet, because of CodeMonkey. It has given them confidence in their coding skills and helps them apply what they have learned before I\u2019ve done the lesson. It is a fabulous educational tool that I hope I get to keep every year!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

When my students start working on their CodeMonkey lessons, they will tell me that the lessons are \u201ceasy.\u201d\u00a0 Then, about half way into the first lesson, they are asking for additional help.\u00a0 I try to tell them when we first get started that the lessons will progress in difficulty.\u00a0 They will say, \u201cOh,\u201d or \u201cI get it now,\u201d once I\u2019ve explained the concept to them.\u00a0 Some of my students would rather work on CodeMonkey than work with the actual robots in our rooms.\u00a0 Thankfully, they go hand in hand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I would tell teachers not to be afraid to give it a try.\u00a0 The students are already leaps and bounds ahead of us in technology.\u00a0 They\u2019ve never known a world without technology.\u00a0 So, let\u2019s show them something new that may lead to a career in the future.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is there anything else you would like to share with us?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I am so thankful that I found CodeMonkey during the pandemic.\u00a0 I would utilize the 30-day free trial with each of my classes.\u00a0 I would create new emails every semester so that my students wouldn\u2019t miss out the coding lessons on CodeMonkey.\u00a0 Now that my district has purchased a site license, I am over the moon.\u00a0 There are so many more lessons that aren\u2019t part of the free trial.\u00a0 And, I love it!\u00a0\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
