What a pleasure to playtest and develop this prototype together with @LLKgroup. Creating a collaborative story by adding hand-crafted sprites to this landscape had us deeply engaged in coding and making for hours. #ComputationalTinkering #STEAM #Coding #Tinkering #Scratch

Black lives matter. We stand with Black youth, our colleagues, fellow educators, educational organizations, and families. Breaking down centuries of structural racism and injustice requires understanding, commitment, and action from all of us.
