Raspberry Pi Foundation Blog
EDITOR BRIEF
A fifth grade teacher in Edina, Minnesota uses Experience CS each fall at a creative writing station where students build programming projects while writing stories and jokes. She found the story-based unit fit language arts best, while the ecosystems unit was harder for some students. She also noticed that students who struggle in other subjects can shine in these lessons and help each other.
