          1. Time on Computers
          2. Lesson Plans for Coding
          3. Retaining Data
        5. Meet with Mrs. Rasberry abd Dr. Bostic at the end of the year to go over the same data from the meetings with the principal.
        6. Survey parents around March or April to see if students would be interested to be in a coding class throughout school year.
          1. The school will host an informational before the end of the year to let parents know about the coding program.
      2. 1:1
        1. My classroom will be 1:1 for the weeks that I do have the cart.
          1. Weeks I don’t put in request for cart
          2. Keep Data on how much students are using the iPads.
  • Phase II 
    1. June to August
