Last week was Computer Science Education Week!
Computer Science Education Week coincides with the birthdays of two computer science pioneers. A pioneer is a person who is one of the first to enter a field of study or explore a new area of thought.
Who were these two computer science pioneers?
1. Ada Lovelace, born in England on December 10, 1815, is considered the world's first computer programmer.
2. Grace Hopper, born on December 9, 1906, was an American computer programmer and Navy rear admiral. She contributed to developing ..read more

We have been exploring arrays!
Row x Column = Product
The multiplication for the array above is
3 x 4 = 12
because it has 3 rows of 4.
When the factors are different digits,
the arrays are in the shape of a rectangle.
When the factors are the same digit,
the array is a square!
Here are some arrays we found around campus!
3 rows of 3
3 x 3 = 9 hearts
3 rows of 4
3 x 4 = 12 green squares
3 rows of 11
3 x 11 = 33 rectangles
10 rows of 10
10 x 10 = 100 squares
This is a very famous array!
5 rows of ..read more

Dear Class,
Kiwi and I shared a lot of fun adventures together. After I finished school for the day, we listened to some fun music in the car.
Then, Kiwi joined me for my practice session. He was very supportive of me and always made sure to clap after each piece.
After I practiced the piano, Kiwi and I decided to take a break and enjoy a nice snack of Kiwi slices. We were sitting comfortably on the couch which happened to match the fur of Kiwi.
What is your favorite piece to play on the piano ..read more

Dear Class,
I had a very adventurous day with Kiwi. First, Kiwi and I played soccer, and Kiwi got very strong in the process.

After Kiwi rested, she met my sister and together, they watched the movie Moana. Kiwi loved Moana, and she did not want to leave the couch after.

She finally decided to go outside again where she saw a beautiful rainb ..read more

Dear Class,
Kiwi and I had so much fun coding together, and Kiwi even created his own video game. After that, we solved some mystery puzzles, and Kiwi did almost all of the work.

Then, Kiwi started to prepare for a circus. I 3D printed him a heart for his clown nose, and he was balancing on an actual Kiwi while looking up at the sky. That's amazing, good job Kiwi!

In addition, we took a trip to Gelsons and discovered the most beautiful flowers. Kiwi was immediately hooked, so we bought him the flower arrangement since we had no choice ..read more
