2 heart(s) Loading...Online curriculum for teaching coding and computer science skills. K-2 and 3-5 available. Teaches through animated tutorials and activities. Most coding is drag and drop block coding. Javascript options for older students are optional and not optimal for getting kids to actually use Javascript. However, the program is a good one: It is organized, with linear lessons and units, and includes basic concept of computer science such as looping and variables, so it is great for building a more formal curriculum, even with teachers who are not computer science wizards. Also, the teacher can load students and track their progress.

The collection of spoken words that a child understands is usually called his or her oral vocabulary. The larger a child’s oral vocabulary, the more words he or she will be able to read and understand.
There are many ways to increase a child’s oral vocabulary, and different children learn in different ways. The best way is just to talk together about the people and things that are in your child’s world. You can also build oral vocabulary when you share books, stories, songs and rhymes, and talk about the meanings of words. Games and puzzles can help, too.
Along with these resources, ABCmouse.com offers an extensive glossary with definitions of hundreds words in child-friendly language.
