Our newsletters highlight a variety of people, organizations, and resources that are doing work to broaden participation and expand equitable and engaging computer science and STEM opportunities. We are honored to work in this space along with so many talented and passionate individuals and want to help bring attention to their work.
This Week’s Spotlight: THANK YOU!
WOW! The generosity of our community is truly astounding. Thank you to all who donated to Code Savvy for Give to the Max day! Your gifts will go far in promoting STEM education in MN.
In case you missed it, our campaign is continuing through year end. There are still matching funds available, so all donations will be matched dollar for dollar. Your generous donation can make a difference for kids across Minnesota by helping us support Minnesota educators and open the doors of computer science to more kids, especially those who have been historically excluded from computer science. DONATE HERE!
We want to wish you a wonderful Thanksgiving. We are definitely thankful to all of you for your continued support, particularly this year when you have adjusted to our virtual events and programs.
No matter how you are celebrating, we know it will be special. Our challenge today will hopefully inspire your kids to share the holiday with family and friends no matter where they are.
This Week's Project Inspiration Theme: Thanksgiving
November 26th is Thanksgiving!
This week we celebrate Thanksgiving, a holiday where families usually get together and give thanks. This year will be different for many of you as you may be following guidelines and doing something smaller just within your household. Try using this Scratch tutorial to create an animated card in Scratch to send to your family and friends about this year’s very different Thanksgiving. Remember, this is just a suggestion; use your creative genius to create a personalized project!
We hope you create a CS project in honor of Thanksgiving! If you do, please share it with us.
Share Your CS to Go Projects!
