Week 7: 8th Grade Coding

Over the past few weeks, Miss Capobianco's 8th grade STEM classes have been learning about Coding. They used different websites to learn about different code languages before settling on Code.org to learn about the HTML language.

HTML is a code language that allows us to build websites. Each day, Miss C's students log onto their accounts and work their way through modules in which they learn all about the tags and meanings in the HTML language.

As the 8th grade students develop their skills they are keeping track of all the new symbols and tags they learn so that at the end of their modules, they can work together to build a website! These students are beginning to see that there is so much more that goes into a website than just the text and the pictures on the screen. We are using tools to study the code behind websites we use everyday!

Stay tuned for the outcome of our Coding unit!!
