K9-Computer Science Tutoring

Grade 9 Computer Science — Introduction to Coding and Computational Thinking

The Grade 9 Computer Science Tutoring Program builds digital fluency and problem-solving ability through computational logic and beginner-level programming. Aligned with the CSTA U.S. High School Standards, it prepares students for data-driven learning, digital communication, and future technology courses.

Core Learning Areas

• Fundamentals of computational thinking.
• Logic building with flowcharts and pseudocode.
• Introduction to algorithms and sequencing.
• Basic programming with Scratch or Python.
• Cyber ethics and responsible digital use.

Goal

The goal of Grade 9 Computer Science is to introduce algorithmic problem-solving and digital reasoning, preparing students for Grade 10 Programming and AP pathways.
