By the end of this unit, students will be able to:
● Write code involving sequential (step-by-step) and concurrent (at the same time) events
● Read and alter code involving sequential (step-by-step) and concurrent (at the same time) events
Students will provide step-by-step instructions orally, in writing, and using symbols.
Students will identify tasks that are performed concurrently and explain why some tasks are performed concurrently.
Students will understand through participating in a simulation that concurrency can make events faster.
Students will determine an efficient way for two teams to work concurrently to tidy the classroom and will write the steps for each team.

Created by a Teacher and Coder
Together, Ace and Emily teamed up to make a practical guide for Ontario teachers to deliver quality coding lessons to students.
Hi, I'm Ace!
I am a UofT Computer Science graduate and have over 10 years of professional programming experience at IBM, TD Bank and Loyalty One. I will teach you coding concepts from the new Ontario curriculum using simple, real life examples.
Hi, I'm Emily!
I'm an Ontario primary teacher with over 8 years of teaching experience and a Masters of Education. I was lost with the new coding curriculum, then Ace taught me the concepts and we teamed up to create a practical guide.
