TECH CORPS and the Teaching & Learning Collaborative created #CUTOUT4CS to focus on the integration of computational thinking and computer science in the elementary grades. Using a cookie design scenario to set the stage for the lessons and the Scratch programming world, #CUTOUT4CS showcases the integration of mathematics and computational thinking in the elementary grades.

The TECH CORPS Teacher Leader Network empowers educators to lead innovative technology integration in their classrooms, schools, and districts. Through ongoing professional development and support, this cohort offers a unique opportunity for teachers to deepen their understanding and practical application of the latest technology concepts. Participating educators attend two full-day professional learning sessions. Teacher Leaders receive valuable resources and early access to additional TECH CORPS program opportunities, further enhancing their leadership capabilities.

• Try new ideas with students and share resources with colleagues.
