A few years ago, I retired from my position as head of Modern Languages, a bit fearful of the "R" word. But to date, it has been nothing but fun! Canadian law requires school-aged actors to study with a qualified teacher when they鈥檙e off-camera. Many of our young actors are in immersion French so I've found a happy little niche, teaching a few days a week as an on-set tutor and moving in inspiring and creative circles! Furthermore, I get to share resources here! Vive la retraite!

Dutch primary schools are using Montessori pegboards to introduce children to coding work. The colours and numbers of the code reveal a pattern.

Pupils must work the code, line by line, to build the surprise picture.

Since not every classroom has pegboards, I鈥檝e reworked the principle as a 鈥減aper-and-coloured-pencil鈥� activity for individuals or pairs.

P.S. I protested to my resident IT guru that it seemed a stretch to call this 鈥渃oding鈥� as it looked more like a knitting or weaving pattern to me. 鈥淲ell,鈥� he answered, "The punch cards of the Jacquard loom were direct ancestors of those in early computers鈥�.

I stand corrected!
