The choice boards are linked below by grade level:

K - 2nd grade Computer Science Choice Board (share link: bit.ly/elemcschoiceboards)
3rd grade - 6th grade Computer Science Choice Board (share link: bit.ly/elemcschoiceboards)
6th grade - 12th grade Computer Science Choice Board (share link: bit.ly/middlehighcschoiceboard)

Included on each grade level's computer science choice boards is also a coding choice board for students to have many opportunities and activities to explore and practice coding at their own pace.

We hope you have a great kickoff to Computer Science Education Week and Hour of Code! If you are on social media, be sure to use #HourofCode and #CSEverywhere. Can't wait to see what fun students have this week learning about computer science!
