WETZEL COUNTY, W.Va., June 1, 2021 /PRNewswire/ When Short Line Elementary School transitioned back to in-person learning this spring, PE teacher Mrs. McSweeney had a new activity planned that combined active play with learning to code. Her students are the first in the Wetzel County School District to use Unruly Splats, programmable floor buttons that students code to light up, make sounds, and collect points when stomped on to create their own active games. Unruly Splats have been a great way to get kids active and learning coding concepts without even realizing it, said Mrs. McSweeney. As a PE teacher who has never coded before, I was amazed at how easy it was for me to learn how to use the Splats and teach the students how to manipulate them to create and modify their own games.
Education, Values and Priorities
By Ed Parsons - Editor | Feb 24, 2021
Something seems lost in today’s world! The chaos we’ve seen in politics the past several months on the national level, has trickled down to the local level and hit home hard for folks in Wetzel County. Growing up in Wetzel County Schools is something most of us are proud of. We have bragging rights when it comes to academics, sports, and quality education experiences.
Children in our school systems have always been top priority. Quality education and values have been the goal for educators and school administrators as far back as I can remember. And it’s been the dream and aspiration of most parents for their kids to have an opportunity to be educated in that type of atmosphere.
