Take Black History Month projects to new heights with this coding project

This Hour of Code lesson from Vidcode will help students turn a "typical" Black History Month report or project into a cool interactive slideshow. The lesson includes a 35-minute coding challenge and an opportunity for students to share what they've created with others. Kids will learn how to code variables and loops.

The lesson maps to CSTA standards, focuses on real-world application of programming skills, and celebrates Black History Month.
