This indispensable guide brings together an eclectic mix of industry innovators and experts to show how you can bring the world of coding to your primary school practice. Just like learning to play an instrument, or learning a new language, coding provides an essential set of skills for the learner, which will build confidence and help to develop a passion for technology. The book includes a range of inspirational ideas for the cross curricular teaching of coding, from demystifying algebra in maths, to designing digital storytelling, as well as an insight into the global movement of free coding clubs for young people, such as Coderdojo and Girls Learning Code. It has become cool to code!
