It’s not always easy to detect student engagement in the classroom but this looks about right. We love the intense concentration on these students’ faces. Keep up the great work, Moulsford educators and thank you for sharing CodeCombat with your school!

Jaime, that sounds like a perfect snow day to us. We hope you’re staying warm and thanks for bringing us along too!
When you’re a nerd like me, you teach your kid how to code in JavaScript, Html, and CSS on snow days! No blocks needed! He’s a nerd, too! 🤓 @CodeCombat @codemoji123 pic.twitter.com/jgfnPRqKM8
