Hour of Code

This week Room 10 took part in Hour of Code. This is a world wide event introducing people to the power of code.

Some reflections from participants in Room 10:

"Code.org is such a good way to learn how to code. It teaches you how to make things move and happen" - Katie

"On the Khan Academy website we have been drawing a face and we could put pieces of the face as tall or wide as we wanted. Coding allows you to make choices of your picture or text" - Maddalena

"Code is a great way to learn about computers and it is also very fun!" - Meredith

"Coding sometimes can be complicated but most of the time it is fun" - Sonia

"Coding is an exciting thing that you do with numbers to explore shapes to make a picture" - Grace

"I like it how you can put blocks together and you can create your own game" - William

"I enjoyed making this game because it's a bit like a puzzle" - Guy

Growth Mindset Posters

Growth Mindset

In room ten we have been working on our growth mind-set. A growth mind-set is when you believe in yourself and think that you can do it no matter what. The opposite of growth mind-set is a fixed mind-set that is when you don’t believe. Another way of saying it is empowering others that is when you make other people proud of what they have done or who they are. All famous people have dropped down to a limit were they don’t believe in there self the funny thing is that they became famous because of failure everybody goes through it and that is why we are thinking about growth mind-set. We are going to make posters of a description/writing of empowering and believing. Do you have a growth mind-set? 

You should believe and empower.
