What will you create?

What is creativity? And what does it have to do with Computer Science? The 2018 Hour of Code is exploring that connection. Hour of Code is a global movement reaching tens of millions of students in 180+ countries during Computer Science Education Week December 3 - 9, 2018. Help us celebrate by hosting an hour of code this year! We’ve put together resources to help teachers, coaches, and administrators from PreK to high school host events in their classrooms and buildings. Visit our team’s Hour of Code resource page for everything you need to get creative! Here’s a quick overview of what you’ll find:

1. Register your event with us! We’ll send you stickers and certificates to spread the word before and celebrate after. You should also register at the Hour of Code sight for a chance to win robots or circuits.
2. Use the planning guide to make sure you’ve covered all your bases.
3. Search the Hour of Code activities page or check out our Smores (PreK-2, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12, Adults) with our favorite unplugged and online activities.
4. Connect with local professionals to join you either face to face or virtually to better understand what computer scientists do.
5. Share your hour of code on social media with this format: Creativity is _______ What will you create? #HourOfCode #CSforGWAEA #CSforIA #iowacs

We can't wait to see what you create!
