K-5

We sincerely appreciate your willingness to help our kids enjoy computer science.Welcome to the Code.org family!

Code Studio

Computer science curriculum for K - 5

Code.org

1) Hour of Code2) Curriculum for K – 123) Changing legislation

What’s in this for our kids?

What’s the connection to Standards?

Code.org has studied, analyzed, attached and referenced Common Core standards for even the most intense, standard based admin/district office personnel. Code.org is a natural, easy fit into Common Core.

STEM jobs will continue to increase for many years with no slow down predicted.

Exposing our kids to computer science will help with almost any career they choose.

Can you think of any careers that wouldn’t benefit from being comfy with the basics of computer science?

“Ultimately, the only way to get more people into Computer Science is to start early.”– Larry Page, Google, CEO

Projected New Jobs in STEM

Do you see a reason for our kids to not be afraid of computer

science?

AP ParticipationOf this tiny sliver, only 15% are women.

Only 8% are Hispanic Americans or African Americans.

In China, every student takes computer science to

graduate high school. In the U.S., 90 percent of schools

don’t even teach it.
