Hour of Code with Code Ninjas @codeorg #HourOfCode
For Hour of Code 2021 Code Ninjas has coding games online, coding sessions, and a game jam in collaboration with Game Jam! Here’s more from Code Ninjas:
This year, Code Ninjas is collaborating with Microsoft MakeCode to bring opportunities to anyone who wants to get involved during CSEdWeek. Code Ninjas will be opening their doors to the public as they host Hour of Code™ and Game Jam™ sessions at no cost. No coding experience is needed. Find a location near you to get started now!
Technology and Computer Science is everywhere in the world around us. And it’s helping to solve some of the toughest problems we’re facing in the world.
For this year’s Hour of Code™, let’s look at how computers and technology can help combat forest fires.
Come into any of our participating Code Ninjas locations, code a game with Microsoft MakeCode Arcade that recreates the conditions for a forest fire, and then code your firefighting airtanker plane to spray water and put out the flames!

Stop breadboarding and soldering – start making immediately! Adafruit’s Circuit Playground is jam-packed with LEDs, sensors, buttons, alligator clip pads and more. Build projects with Circuit Playground in a few minutes with the drag-and-drop MakeCode programming site, learn computer science using the CS Discoveries class on code.org, jump into CircuitPython to learn Python and hardware together, TinyGO, or even use the Arduino IDE. Circuit Playground Express is the newest and best Circuit Playground board, with support for CircuitPython, MakeCode, and Arduino. It has a powerful processor, 10 NeoPixels, mini speaker, InfraRed receive and transmit, two buttons, a switch, 14 alligator clip pads, and lots of sensors: capacitive touch, IR proximity, temperature, light, motion and sound. A whole wide world of electronics and coding is waiting for you, and it fits in the palm of your hand.
Have an amazing project to share? The Electronics Show and Tell is every Wednesday at 7:30pm ET! To join, head over to YouTube and check out the show’s live chat and our Discord!
