Welcome to 2014!
To kick off the new year of learning, I will be offering an after-school class on computer programming for grades three through six. The class will start the week of January 14th, and we will meet every Tuesday from 3:40 - 4:20pm in the computer lab. Watch for a letter to come home from the school on how to sign up.
The program I will be using is Tynker.com. Students will each work through a series of lessons and in the process, learn how to create their own game. They will get to play their games on the last day of class. Parents are welcome to attend the last day and play the game their student has created.
Below is a link to examples of student projects on Tynker's website.

I can't wait to see what Grovecrest students come up with!
