I Can’t Code and Neither Can My Students (But the TEKS Say We Should) (001)
Part of TCEA 2026 Convention & ExpositionPresented by Speaker(s): Sherry Hall
If you’ve ever whispered that to yourself, this session is for you. Discover five middle school–friendly coding projects that are TEKS-aligned, low-stress, and classroom-ready—no prior experience required. From interactive fiction to Mondrian-inspired art and a time-traveling math quest, these very basic projects build real coding skills (without real tears). Watch live demos, snag the templates and teacher notes, and walk away ready to code with your students—even if you’ve never typed print() before.
