Talk 64: Sensemaking routines in coding class

Description: Some of our favourite math instructional routines also work beautifully for teaching coding! They generate talk and create space for seeing and thinking differently—a perfect way to explore and consolidate concepts, skills, and project builds. Get a taste of sensemaking routines adapted for teaching elementary and middle-grade coding. No coding experience is assumed. Bring these routines back to your classroom, or a colleague’s, and help make code truly graspable and accessible, just like math.
