CS Fundamentals

Code.org

Code.org® is dedicated to expanding access to computer science and increasing participation by young women and underrepresented groups.

Computer Science (CS) fosters creativity and teaches students critical thinking skills to become proactive learners, so elementary school is the ideal time for students to be introduced to CS.

Our six Computer Science Fundamentals courses are flexibly designed for teachers new to CS who want to offer accessible and equitable introductory CS courses to their students.

How you teach these courses is up to you–as part of your classroom schedule, weekly lab or library time, supporting lessons for math and language arts, or to make creative projects. Knowing how important these 21st century skills are for students, teachers tell us they find creative and clever ways to make room to teach CS!
