Before the Winter Break, Middle Schoolers joined over 100 million students around the world and took part in The Hour of Code 13-17 December. Students dedicated their lunchtime to complete the challenge, often collaborating with each other to create using various coding websites.
Here’s what students had to say, when asked why they chose to participate in The Hour of Code:
“I participated because coding is fun. You get to create characters and a whole world if you want to.”
“I chose to participate because it gave me the opportunity to code with my friends and to collaborate with them in projects.”
“I did it because coding is fun and girls don’t code often.”
