  • I have a riddle for you. What do 2nd graders and 5th graders (and the grades in between) all love? Hint: Ice cream (but that isn’t the right answer). The correct answer is my brand-new coloring pages and I guarantee that you and your students will love them too. Coloring isn’t just for kindergarten anymore.

Trust me – this is the best way to begin and reinforce coding skills! Coding is more than learning a language – rather it involves problem solving, critical thinking, logic and reasoning.
