 K-5 Code Studio Workshop
 
 We welcome elementary school teachers (grades K-5) to sign up for an
 invaluable high-quality professional development workshop led by
 Code.org K-5 Affiliates, who are experienced computer science
 educators. Workshops last 6-7 hours and will prepare you to teach the
 Code Studio courses for grades K-5. The curriculum includes 20 fun
 and
 accessible lessons that introduce computer science basics, including
 some activities that don't require a computer. See
 http://code.org/educate/k5 for more details. Following the workshop,
 code.org will send each attendee a set of classroom supplies to use
 for teaching the code curriculum. CAITE is proud to partner with
 code.org to bring these workshops to Western Mass.
