To Know and Think About

http://education.minecraft.net/get-started/

so far...we may as a district have a Microsoft Enrollment for Education Solutions volume license (EES) that we can add Minecraft Edu to this license.  Do we have it? Can we add students through volume for CBMS to use in the MakerSpace?



ALSO

Standford D School

CODING

For coding we could either point them straight to the source athttps://scratch.mit.edu/ 
and/or put them into this getting started thingy https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/editor/?tip_bar=getStarted

(If you create some sounds or other stuff in Scratch, you can hook it up to the Makey Makey to activate your code BTW. That's what Lucie did with Bethel.)

Please let me know what is there in terms of conductive stuff, including fruit or gourds or plants, and I'll try to bring some too.

Thanks,
Life

P.S. - We could also, now or eventually, use some Scratch cards or Scratch challenges to get students going.

Planning meeting Sept 2016
