Feb 03, 2020•52 min•Ep 37•Transcript available on Metacast Episode description
It's not always easy to be a Python teacher. Whether it's trying to find the right words to explain something, handling severe frustration, building perseverance, or losing students while coding together, Python teachers are facing problems beyond just the code. Sean and Kelly discuss five of the things that frequently go wrong in the classroom and how we handle it.
Helping the naturally gifted- keeping up; keeping them learning
Developing the vocab that allows students to solve problems
Losing students during code-alongs
Kids stuck in Turtle module
Getting past the frustration level - waiting on the “click”
As a special bonus, we talk about a few of the new arrivals in our classroom, including the newest LEGO Education Robot, the Spike Prime!
