3 Months Until CS Ed Week! Invite a friend to a Code.org workshop!

Did you know we have only three more months until 

Computer Science(CS) Education Week?


During this week, many people participate in an Hour of Code! If you are wondering how to start with an Hour of Code, one suggestion I have is to attend a free Code.org CS Fundamentals workshop which are for elementary educators at all levels of comfort with CS. Did you know, that in Minnesota we have over 1,000 educators who have attended a  Code.org CS Fundamentals workshop!? You could reach out to a teacher friend and there is a pretty good chance that if they haven't attended, they will know someone who has. If you don't find someone, even if you do find someone, you should attend a workshop! I have two planned over MEA at two fabulous locations!!

Here is my algorithm for your call to action:


1. Create an emoji of yourself at Made with Code

2. Invite a friend to attend a Code.org CS Fundamentals workshop if you want to attend with me you can easily find my workshops at bit.ly/codewithangiews
3. Attend the workshop and create your plan for hosting an Hour of Code
4. Share your plan - On Twitter I use #Csforall and #HourofCode
5. Follow through with your plan
6. Share pictures and thoughts about your Hour of Code

Here is template that you can use to invite your friend to attend! I created it using Canva.
