OverviewGetting kid-coders off the screen and on their feet having hands-on, unplugged, active FUN! It's time to have some fun with coding and numbers - in all kinds of surprising places. From obstacle courses to treasure maps, this book gets kid-coders talking like computers and debugging like pros. With the help of familiar number concepts - plus a little fresh air and teamwork - the coding learning really comes to life! The Coding Unplugged series uses creativity and physicality to engage children with the cardinal coding concepts, without the need for any hardware or screen time. By taking coding offline, it's easy to focus on the basic concepts, which are fundamental to learning to code. Combining coding learning with creative or physical activities is also a great way to embed the information and keep children active. Dr Kaitlyn Siu, child neurologist and author of First Steps in Coding, and creator of www.teachyourkidscode.com brings her unique take on coding practice to this fun series for readers aged 6 plus.

He lives and works in Devon, with his two children and a nutty Spaniel. Tab Content 6Author Website:Countries AvailableAll regions |
