How long has it been since you have Hopscotched?

The Hour Of Code (presented by code.org) has taken the world of education by storm. But, there is a free app, that allows your students to take block programming to whatever level they are able. It is a natural differentiator, which as teachers, we desperately need. Hopscotch is also does not require a lot of reading, so it allows normally struggling students really shine.

It is also highly engaging. I had several students, on their own time over a weekend, work together to create Pong. Yes, that pong. The world-rocking video game of our youth. 10 year olds figured out how to block code it in two days.

The most amazing part about it is that as a teacher you do NOT need to know how to program or code. The tutorials are built in---and students naturally start to figure things out. They become the leaders of the classroom, while you get to sit back and learn from them.
