They quickly took to building mazes, writing step-by-step commands, and testing their code to see if their mouse could reach the cheese. \r\n\r\nBeyond learning basic coding logic like sequencing and debugging, students are building confidence in STEM, learning to collaborate, and developing persistence.\r\n\r\nYour support made this possible.
