Teaching coding does not mean giving up math content but connecting to it instead.   Workshop will explore how in addition to computational thinking and organization skills, lessons simultaneously enrich understanding of geometric concepts and spatial reasoning.  Additional connections support the 8 Math Practices. In this workshop coding is more than ‘making,’ it provides an avenue to for exploration and connection. Topics include 2D vs 3D geometry, the Cartesian coordinate system, Transformation functions as well as Union, Intersection, and more!
