@LCPS_CTAE 6th graders @HPMS_Official dove into historical cryptography with signal flags & cipher wheels—decoding secret messages in teams! Despite the rain, indoor collaboration made it even better! Then came Morse Code, Pigpen, & Caesar Ciphers!🧠💬

5th graders got to try out the new micro:bits provided by the CS Dept and loved it! @AlgorithmChef helped us code them to play rock, paper, scissors and train an AI model to tell the difference between physical movements using the micro:bit’s accelerometer. @csforlcps

We had an amazing time with our first Trashion Show on Friday! Thank you to our guest judges, our brave teacher models, our student creators, staff organizers, and everyone who donated recycled items. It was so fun to see our Comets SHINE with this project. 🤩

During #nationalroboticsweek, @csforlcps is celebrating innovation in @LCPSOfficial robotics classes! @JLSMS_Official students designed robots to solve real world problems. @WillardLCPS students used line trackers & coded for light variability. #FutureReady

K-1 Ts spent the afternoon with @AlgorithmChef & @regratz87 rocking out to a @Metallica themed PD that had them Entering the Coding Sandman & Riding the Lightning to help spark CS integration in @SSGSlcps. From @Ozobot to @makeymakey to an air guitar competition, this PD rocked!

History came alive today at the @awscloud Think Big Space when 2nd graders from Evergreen Mill Elementary worked with @AbbySpessard to create floats for famous Americans. After building their floats, they coded Root Robots to drive them in a small parade.

K & 2nd grade Ss @HorizonElem learned about Machine Learning from @AlgorithmChef. K Ss used @Google Autodraw to identify living & nonliving things at the park while 2nd grade used Teachable Machine to create a model that identified if an animal migrates or hibernates.

During their monthly CS CLTs, K-5 Ts @emerickelem1967 worked with @AlgorithmChef to learn how to use block-based coding to program @Ozobot to help a leprechaun collect shamrocks and reach a pot of gold. Ts then discussed ways they could integrate OzoBlockly into weekly lessons.
