Did you know you can learn more about teaching code K-12 with Apple? Take a look here for more information on the Everyone can Create guides, developing code in Swift and Swift coding clubs.
Beginner
Everyone Can Code Early Learners – introduces computational thinking in the early years. Through engaging and often off-screen activities, students K-3 can build a foundation in core coding concepts through subjects including science, art, music and PE. For example, a lesson on coding commands is taught through dance moves, and an activity on functions asks students to discuss calming techniques step by step, connecting to social emotional learning.
