Chronicles of A Substitute Teacher: Today I Hit Gold!-Coding Class in Elementary

So I think by now you can tell I love my job every day, but today I was blown away with how cool my job really can be. I accepted an 8 day position at a school working for their elementary coding/engineering class. This is a “specials” class so every day I have students from grades K-5 come in to my classroom in their library and they get to explore different stations to help them become familiar with coding and engineering principles.
Not only is this awesome because I get to teach something I am passionate about, but because the kids really look forward to this class during their day! My class is actually two classes combined, that I co-teach with the librarian, so I am also not alone in the crowd control. Not to mention, the teacher I am working with is the one who wrote the curriculum for my class, so she has done it all! I thought I would share a few pictures of my classroom for the next week, because it is just so cool.

Okay, so that's all I have for today. There are so many cool tools the kiddos and I get to work with, so I will probably have more about this tomorrow or later in the week. Someone pinch me, this is too great!

Stay awesome,
What a neat class! I look forward to hearing how it goes. :-)
So far it has been great! Today was really high energy and we stayed late to set up for a project involving some Eric Carle books for the rest of the week, so I needed some downtime this evening. Promise tomorrow I will have an update and share what we are doing!
