ELL
Supporting English language learners is important to Code For Fun. We provide fliers in both English and Spanish (other languages upon request). As well, we engage students in peer programming which provides a wonderful place for students to practice vocabulary in partnership with others while coding together. The Code For Fun Instructor provides instructions verbally as well as in written text on slides and handouts.
Special Needs
Code For Fun is committed to supporting a diverse and inclusive learning environment and providing equal access to all students. We are committed to work with parents and students to provide reasonable accommodations in the classroom. Our goal is to remove barriers so that all students can actively participate in class.
