About Me:
Hello everyone,
With joy and excitement, I will be teaching 7th-grade Computer Science this year! My name is Mr. Mendoza and I am from San Diego, CA. I went to college at UC, Merced, and later decided to move to New York City (ask me questions later about my trip- I have awesome stories to tell!). For fun, I like to walk along the beach, I like meeting new people, I am always trying to learn new things, I love computers and I love learning about how the stock market works!

Objectives:
Our main objective in this classroom is to HAVE FUN by exploring new NEW CONCEPTS and IDEAS. the purpose of this class is to introduce what Computer Science is. Together, we will dive into what computers are, what they do, how they do it, and what it takes to build a solution to a current world problem. We will achieve this by exploring a wide range of contexts. In my class, we will learn by doing, we will solve problems, we will build, and understand how to incorporate design thinking while we cover block-based to text-based concepts.
Computer Science is thinking outside the box- it is a journey. I am excited to share this experience with you all. "Nothing worth doing is ever easy, but it is fun!" is what I like to say! Again, our OBJECTIVE is to have FUN and LEARN. |
