Beebe 7th graders are doing some coding! #ARKidsCanCode
Take a look at Google Santa Tracker! It begins every year once the calendar turns to December and counts down through Christmas Eve when Santa Claus departs the North Pole. The tracker has a variety of activities as well as the ‘latest and greatest from Google Maps technology and Sleigh Engineering.’
It’s branded as having activities for K-12 student, but, adults are going to want to check this out, too. Every day, a new link is unlocked – it could be a video, a game or an educational tutorial. https://santatracker.google.com/village.html
