Getting Started with CS First
 
In this hands-on free professional development workshop, teachers will learn how to use CS First, Google’s free ready-to-teach introductory computer science (CS) curriculum for middle school students. Students follow step-by-step instructional videos that introduce fundamental computer science concepts and build computer programs using Scratch, a block-based programming language. 
 
During the workshop, teachers will review the CS First curriculum and test drive a CS First class from a student and teacher perspective. Teachers will walk away with a plan of action and strategies for starting to teach CS First in their classrooms. Most importantly, teachers will join the growing community of CS First educators from around the world.  

To see how CS First can be applied to your curriculum, take a look at the Ontario curriculum mapping
