We start the day with a fun, interactive challenge. Students are often paired into teams as they compete in a game that gets them out of their chairs and gets their brains flowing.

See, Try, Practice, Learn
This is where we introduce new coding topics to the students. We keep this interactive so students aren't stuck staring at a powerpoint presentation the whole time.

Think, Build, Break, Fix
Students dive into project-based lessons where they are challenged to think like engineers. Implementing the techniques just learned, students will persevere through failure as they see their code come to life.

Build, Share, Refactor, Extend
During this time, students are back at their keyboards coding. Most programming tasks have more than one solution, so we make sure students see there isn't just one right answer.
As a group, we analyze the pros and cons of various solutions, expanding students' minds to think in new ways. Students return to their code and incorporate their newfound knowledge.
